Christ Centered Creativity

We’re going out with a bang for the Season 1 Finale of Christ Centered Creativity!👀 Today, we’re talking about Envy and how to overcome envying other people’s creative gifts as Christian creatives. God has placed unique gifts within all of us, and it’s important we focus on being good stewards of those gifts instead of falling into the trap of envying how God is using others. Because the truth is, you don’t need their creative gifts, you just need to recognize YOURS!💕Disclaimer: Always take what I say (and what anyone else says) back to the Lord(:💕Scripture References:James 3:14-15 (NIV)James 3:16 (NIV, KJV)Ecclesiastes 4:4 (NLT)Matthew 25:15 (NIV)Matthew 25:29 (NIV)Proverbs 4:25 (KJV)1 Thessalonians 4:11-12 (NIV)Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ChristCenteredCreativityPodEmail: [email protected] Personal Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ArtbyJadaSamone

In today’s episode of Christ Centered Creativity, we’re discussing ChatGPT and how we can avoid making it an Idol as Christian Creatives. ChatGPT is a great resource, but we must use it in a way that is surrendered to God’s will so that we don’t fall into the trap of being overly reliant or co-dependent on it. If we’re honest, artificial intelligence ain’t got nothing on God’s intelligence! Join me in today’s episode as we take heed to God’s reminder that HE is our source of creativity, not ChatGPT! 💕Scripture References:James 1:5Ephesians 2:10John 14:16-17Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ChristCenteredCreativityPodEmail: [email protected] Personal Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ArtbyJadaSamone

Have you made art and idol? In today’s episode of Christ Centered Creativity, we’re talking about the Idolization of Artistic Expression and Aesthetics. As Christian creatives, we must be mindful of what we consume creatively through movies, music, and entertainment because what we consume, we become. Believe it or not, art is not “just art.” We have an enemy looking to see who he can deceive, and guess what? A common way he does this is through art and entertainment! Join me in today’s episode as we discuss why it’s important we’re being led with discernment (through the Holy Spirit) so that we’re not being deceived by artistic expression, aesthetics, talent, and what things look like on the surface without looking deeper.

In today’s episode of Christ Centered Creativity, we’re diving into the importance of stewarding the influence God has blessed us with and doing so well! When God blesses us with a platform, our main goal should be to glorify Jesus and point people to Christ. As Christian influencers and creatives, we must consider others above ourselves while stewarding our influence because the last thing we want to do is cause others to stumble on their walk with Christ. In this episode, we’ll be discussing why we should submit our platforms/ influence to God, being mindful of who and what we choose to endorse to our audience, and why it’s so important we look deeper into things before suggesting it to others. If you’re a Christian creator of any kind with influence (spoiler alert: we ALL have influence), this episode is for you! Join me as we look into the Word of God to see how we can be better stewards over the platforms He’s blessed us with(: Disclaimer: Always take everything I say (and what anyone else says) back to the Lord/ His Word).

Welcome back to Christ Centered Creativity! In today’s episode, we’re diving into a topic that many creatives struggle with: perfectionism. We’ve all been there before, waiting for the “perfect” idea, the “perfect” resources, or the “perfect” moment to get started. But what if God’s not waiting for your perfection? What if He’s just waiting for you to take that first step?We're talking about why starting is way more important than perfecting. Perfectionism often keeps us stuck, but God has already given us everything we need to begin. We’ll explore how Moses, with nothing but a staff in hand, and Bezalel, with his artistic abilities, both started with what God had already placed in them. Whether it’s a simple staff or a gift of craftsmanship, God used what they had to fulfill His purpose. This shows that God is the one who equips us with the skills and talents we need, and He’s ready to do miracles with whatever we bring to the table. Plus, we’ll dive into why taking action is the true “proof of concept” in our creative journey.If you’ve been waiting for everything to be flawless before you take action, this episode is for you! Tune in for some encouragement, practical tips, and a reminder that starting, even imperfectly, is what God truly honors.Scripture References:Exodus 4:2Exodus 31:1-62 Timothy 1:72 Corinthians 10:5James 2:17Matthew 25:14-30Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ChristCenteredCreativityPodEmail: [email protected] Podcast Topic Request Form: https://forms.gle/2Lq4NtpG97GaZ5pv5

In this eye-opening episode, we dive deep into the subtle ways witchcraft and New Age practices have infiltrated the art space—and how they’re affecting Christian creatives.
