Ep. 12: You don’t need their creative gifts, you just need to recognize yours! | Overcoming Envy

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/ChristCenteredCreativityPod Email: Christcenteredcreativitypod@gmail.com Personal Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ArtbyJadaSamone

Ep. 11: How to Use Chat GPT with Integrity As A Christian Creative

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 1:5 Ephesians 2:10 John 14:16-17 Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ChristCenteredCreativityPod Email: Christcenteredcreativitypod@gmail.com Personal Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ArtbyJadaSamone

Ep. 10: The Idolization of Artistic Expression & Aesthetics - It’s not “just art”, it’s demonic.

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.

Ep. 9: Is a TikTok trend worth causing someone else to stumble? | Stewarding Influence Well

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).

Ep. 8: Are you rejecting God’s creative call on your life? | Imposter syndrome & false humility

Welcome back to Christ Centered Creativity!(: In today’s episode, we’re talking about the deception of false humility, imposter syndrome and how these are often the reasons why we reject God’s creative call on our lives as Christian Creatives. If you’ve been struggling with moving forward with what God has called you to do because of feelings of inadequacy, this episode is for you! Join me for an episode of edification and encouragement as we combat the lies of the enemy with the truth of God’s word and learn how to walk in obedience despite how we may be feeling in the moment. *Disclaimer*: This episode is not to promote being impulsive or hasty by moving forward with things that haven’t been confirmed by God, but more so encouragement for those who know they’ve been in disobedience by not moving forward with the directions God has blessed them with.
