How does imagination shape not only our art but our spiritual formation? And what does it mean to hold space for play, growth, and even disappointment within our creative process?
In this episode, Stephen Roach is joined by Jon Guerra — a singer, songwriter, and film composer based in Austin, Texas, whose work is marked by its devotional nature and spiritual depth.
Jon shares the inspiration behind his latest record, Jesus, a deeply personal and contemplative album born from the tension between daily life and artistic calling. The conversation explores his experience scoring Terrence Malick’s A Hidden Life, the unpredictable and iterative nature of the creative process, and how imagination serves as a vital tool in both spiritual formation and the search for creative flow.
Topics Include:
Imagination as a tool for spiritual and artistic formation
Finding creative flow amidst life’s changing seasons
The role of play, growth, and disappointment in the creative process
Scoring for film and the collaborative, iterative nature of that work
The inspiration behind Jon’s new album Jesus
The relationship between daily demands and sustained creativity
