The Art of Ministry - A Christian Creativity & Arts Podcast Jesus, Creativity and the Arts with Jon & Lochy

Hi everyone, before the next show comes out, here's an invitation to come to an event I am involved with - 'The Work of RESToring' - with Engage Work Faith, Adelaide. It's going to be a great event all about rest, and the rest that Jesus provides.
Blessings, Jon
Tickets: https://engageworkfaith.org.au/upcoming-events/

Tickets close soon (Monday 27th May 2024) - so grab one quick for an event not to be missed! :) 
ABOUT THE EVENT: 
How many time-saving devices do you own?Yet we can still all feel time-poor; often exhausted, and, at times, close to burning out. We may be designed to work, but we are wired to rest. Sometimes our bodies are resting but our minds just won't stop buzzing with what we should or could be doing. How do we wind down enough to find actual rest? With the help of Clinical Psychologist Dr Jonathan Andrews and a panel of experts, we’ll unpack this topic in a practical way. Carving out a couple of hours to consider how you can find rest for yourself could be game-changing for your downtime. Rest assured, you'll leave this event with a renewed approach to the importance of rest and some tips on how to achieve it. Perhaps it will also provoke curiosity in how Jesus speaks to the universal humanity of mind, body and soul.

Thursday 30 May 2024 from 6:00 PM - 8:15 PM (UTC+09:30)

Good day to you!
We welcome you to Episode 22, where Lochy takes us through Bible memorisation!
How did Lochy memorise the Book of Mark? Why did he do this? What did he learn? And how can we all memorise Sripture as well? All of these questions and more are discussed in this exciting episode, where we consider the importance of remembering Scripture. A key takeaway we hope you see is that anyone can begin Bible memorisation, and then improve on it as it becomes a helpful regular practice!
God's Word is living and active. What a wonderful thing it is that we can memorise it and dwell upon it, and speak it, in our everyday lives. 
Once again we thank you for your support and listening!
And remember, we'd love to hear YOUR stories around memorising the Scriptures. Maybe you memorised a verse to read in a church drama or performance, or regularly memorise Scripture. Maybe you'd like to learn more about this practice. 
God bless and have a terrific week ahead.

Howdy! It's so good to see you! All of Christ's blessings to you this Easter! 
Today's episode is all about Art Therapy - with our special guest Michelle Krieg. She is an Art Therapist, and has worked across Adelaide (South Australia) in group art sessions and also within a hospice environment with many different patients. 
She has amazing stories to tell, and shows us that Art and the Christian faith are so ever present in the Art Therapy context. 
Please note: Some sensitive issues are discussed, including conversations around mental health, discussion about people who are suicidal, chat about people who are dying in a hospice environment, and topics around anxiety, depression, trauma and loss, which some listeners may find distressing. If the show has brought up any issues for you, you can call
Lifeline on 13 11 14 (Australia)
Beyond Blue on 1300 224 636 i(Australia)
or, your country’s counselling hotlines.
You can also call Life FM Careline (Australia) on 4159 7040 between 9am and 11pm for prayer and a listening ear. We would also encourage you to speak to friends, family, your local church pastor or chaplain, or someone you trust.

Greetings friends! Well, what an opportunity and privilege it was to speak with Alaina Frost from One50 Dance for episode 20! We hope you love the show this week!
We cover God and dance, the Bible and dance, the organisation One50 Dance, and even touch on some famous dancers too. Also explored is creativity around dance, and how we can all dance before the Lord, just as David did. What a celebration it is to serve God in such diverse ways across the Arts! 
Below are some links about One50 Dance, as well as a link to their public fund (this gets mentioned too in the show). Can you support them? Here's one way you can!

YES! We are back in 2024 and guess what... so many people have asked advice about how to create a podcast. So instead of continuing to give ideas and replies, why not create a whole episode full of advice about all aspects of podcasting? 
If you want to make a podcast, look no further! We discuss ideas, tools, equipment, software, hardware, communication dynamics, passion for topic, prayer and more! If you've wanted to know how to use multimedia and create a podcast, it's all here. 
Thank you again so much for your continued support - bring on 2024! Let's explore sharing the Gospel through the arts together! God bless and take care, Jon (The Art of Ministry)

Lochy and I have been so thankful for this year. We have a long list of thank yous! 
We appreciate you all and can't wait to catch up with you again in 2024. 
All of God's blessings, The Art of Ministry (Lochy & Jon)
