Artist Archetypes: The Soul Healer

"...If you have something that's a unique gift that you know God has given you, then you just specialize on that thing. You just really develop it. You just really spend your time on it, like you plunge your resources into that special that thing... to the point that you're the only one that does it, or you're the only one that does it the way that you do it, or to the level that you do it."

In this episode of the Be. Make. Do. podcast, Lisa talks with Jakari Sherman, Founder of Ordered Steps, a nonprofit devoted to stepping as youth outreach and community development.

Artist Archetypes: The Storyteller

In this episode, Lisa talks with Erik Løkkesmoe, former VP Outback Presents, in Nashville, TN. They ponder artistic motivations, isolation, common grace, and the Imaginative Visionary Archetype. Erik shares from his years of experience working in the arts and entertainment industry from LA to Nashville.

"﻿﻿...We think we're bigger than we are. We think we have a greater influence. And it's helpful to know that no one's thinking about us right now. We're not on the minds of 1000s or millions of people...the smallness is helpful in that it gives you a sense of significance in the small things...the daily habits of doing. The things that are small and never seen are truly art and do contribute in great ways...." Erik Løkkesmoe

Artist Archetypes: The Imaginative Visionary

The Be. Make. Do. podcast inspires artists of faith by diving into the big - and sometimes controversial - questions that come with pursuing the artist’s calling. Artists are culture makers. But many Christians in the arts feel isolated and conflicted about their call. That’s why we’re starting this conversation - to help you find clarity and confidence. So, be encouraged. And become who you were created to be, make what you were created to make, and do what you were created to do.

Join host Lisa Smith as she poses questions, shares stories, and great conversation with artists, theologians, creatives and friends about the call of the artist in the world.
