What often holds Christians back in storytelling are self-imposed limits of what we think is morally acceptable for church audiences. However a simple reading of the Bible itself disproves that. We need to shift our thinking in order to become storytellers who reflect the reality of life and the redemptive qualities of Jesus.
Other Music Used:
“Roman’s Candle,” written and performed by Sam Barsh.
This episode originally aired November 15, 2022.
The life of Rembrandt shows one of self-reflection (and maybe obsession) that brought about some of the best art in Western history.

Climate protestors are expressing alarm by “defacing” great works of art. Today we examine how those who don’t create inevitably de-create, and how creators who don’t create destroy themselves.
You can’t have creatives without critics. How do we handle them? Do you simply dismiss, or may they have something to help us in our creative efforts?
Interlude Music:
“Got Me Like,” written by Adrian Dominic Walther, performed by Dr. Delight
Whether we like it or not, AI isn’t going anywhere. We need to learn this technology and harness it appropriately as artists to do things that help us in creating, not creating itself.
Interlude Music:
“Too Old For This,” written by Brendan St. Gelais, performed by Reveille.
