The God and Gigs Show | A Podcast for Christian Creators

Ever feel like a dry season in your creative life means something's wrong between you and God?

Have you ever found yourself in conflict as an artist with the church you want to serve - either because you didn't fit the mold, or the church didn't know how to develop your skill? 

Is there a solution? Rick Sorenson thinks so. 

As a lifelong artist, and now author and speaker, Rick has relentlessly explored the connections between faith, creativity, and worship. In this conversation we explore all three to help you realize the key to finding your place in a congregational setting as a creator - and to help churches better shephard their creative members.

It seems EVERYONE is calling themselves a 'creator' these days - and they are using A.I. and all sorts of tools to do it. But what does Scripture say about being a creator? 
Are we missing the true meaning and power behind the word, and actually dumbing it down by applying it to anyone that it seems to fit? 

In this episode, we unpack a surprising Scripture verse that reveals the heart behind God's title as a Creator, so we can truly operate in the full confidence and authority we have as faith-focused creators.

Negotiating a deal. Protecting your brand. Understanding contracts. Sound intimidating? In this episode, Allen sits down with entertainment attorney Amy Oraefo to explore why legal strategy isn't something you do after success—it's something you build before the opportunity arrives.
Amy has over 13 years of experience negotiating multi-million dollar deals for musicians, producers, podcasters, and content creators. She's an adjunct professor at the Joel A. Katz Music & Entertainment Program at Kennesaw State University, an active member of the Recording Academy, and founder of Creative Passport—a platform designed to help emerging creatives navigate the entertainment industry and protect their brands.
In this conversation, you'll discover:
What protecting your creative platform actually means (and why it's essential, not cynical)
The critical legal and business moves to make before your big opportunity shows up
How sound judgment about deals is part of stewarding the gifts God gave you
Practical strategies used in six, seven, and eight-figure deals—without needing an expensive lawyer
If you're building a creative career, navigating potential deals, or wondering what you should actually know about contracts and brand protection, this episode will equip you with the foundation, confidence, and clarity you need.
