I am not the definitive word on anything, but as a creative business owner, I loved this question about how God and creativity connect and communicate through business?
These are my thoughts as I’ve grown my own creative business (wedding photography: Sarah-Jane Ethan Photography ) and who I know God to be.
I like to make the concept of creativity really normal, accessible and even non-arts based.
I believe creativity is at the heart of us all and ultimately at the heart of all fulfilling work.
Q: Does your current work fill you with vision and drive to create something of ease and beauty?
Q: Is it time to get out of a soul-less job that doesnt inspire or allow you to be creative?
Q: What is the creativity God has placed within you that makes you feel alive to express?]]>https://api.spreaker.com/episode/41550246Tue, 20 Oct 2020 10:47:43 +0000Sarah-Jane EthanDrumroll please🥁 ... it’s the first: ⭐️ Q&A with SJ ⭐️ I am not the definitive word on anything, but as a creative business owner, I loved this question about how God and creativity connect and communicate through business?
