EP 009: How to Discover Your God-Given Purpose as a Creative

What do you do when you feel you have gifts and passion—but you can’t quite name your purpose? In this vulnerable episode, Amy Howard dives into one of the most common—and painful—questions she gets asked: “What is my purpose?” She walks you through how she’s learned that purpose is less about arriving and more about a process of discovery, discipline, and alignment with God. Expect some “ouch moments,” as she unpacks why clarity doesn’t appear overnight, and shares practical steps to move from confusion to conviction. You’ll hear: Why we crave clarity but avoid the work required to find it How our passions and giftings can act as guideposts—not accidents The danger of chasing the next shiny idea instead of staying consistent Biblical frameworks (Micah 6:8, 1 Peter 4:10, Matthew 22:37) to tie purpose to loving God and others Three actionable steps you can implement this week to begin discovering your purpose This episode is for you if you’ve ever wondered: “Am I supposed to be doing that or this?” “If clarity doesn’t come soon, do I just give up?” “How do my faith and creativity intersect with what I’m supposed to do?” Challenge for the Week: Turn off the scroll, step into your creative space, and begin doing—not waiting—for your purpose to unfold.
