Scott Erickson, also known as Scott the Painter, is an artist, author, and performance speaker. In his work, Scott seeks to demonstrate that the story of God is not just a story that happened thousands of years ago, but it is also a story that’s happening right now, in your life and mine. Scott’s work has appeared on CNN, in National Geographic, and in various magazines, newspaper outlets, and book covers. The beauty of Scott’s work is that he gives fresh language and visuals to the spiritual journey. He somehow seamlessly weaves profundity, hilarity, and refreshing honesty into his work, inviting us to think honestly about our deepest experiences and life’s deepest questions.

In our time together, we talk about Scott’s journey behind his show and upcoming book release entitled “Say Yes: Discover the Surprising Life Beyond the Death of a Dream,” how his role as a spiritual director informs his work, the power of vulnerability and weakness, and the mind-blowing nature of Grace and its power to transform us. So, please sit back, get ready to laugh, to think deeply, and to be encouraged by Scott Erickson. May you come away from this conversation with new eyes to see how the story of Love and Grace and God is playing out today, even in your story.
