Creative expression isn’t just a hobby — it’s a divine partnership. In this soul-stirring, second conversation with Charity Williams of Hope Words ministry, we explore how following God’s lead in creating can silence comparison and the inner critic, and can awaken fresh, new vision. From painting a “green person” during worship (“Really, God?”) to navigating the tension between creative expression and church culture, Charity shares powerful, practical wisdom for any artist or creative soul longing to co-create with God instead of performing for approval.

In this episode, we unpack how biblical creativity isn’t optional — it’s foundational. Bezalel was filled with the Spirit not to preach, but to create! Charity offers helpful insights for creatives who have felt squelched or sidelined in faith spaces and a passionate invitation to reclaim their creative voice!
