Join Jesse and Michelle for an incredible conversation as they sit down with Cephas Azariah and Joshua Luke Smith to explore the intersection of faith and creativity—why we create, how God is involved in our creative process, and what it means to live as a Christian creative in today's world. This episode has been repurposed from a seminar at Wildfires Festival last summer. It is packed with honest insights, practical wisdom, and a powerful challenge to step into the creative calling God has placed on your life.

This episode tackles the fear of adding to the noise, the pressure of perfection, why you don't have to be joyful to create, and the power of silence before God. Experience a guided moment of stillness inspired by John Cage's 4'33"—a practice of listening to the sound of your heart, your thoughts, and the Holy Spirit. Whether you're a musician, actor, photographer, dancer, or someone who just loves to make things, this conversation will challenge you to see creativity not as a side hustle but as your birthright, and to create with honesty, freedom, and the presence of God.
