👉 Get grounded in your identity in Christ and grow in confidence as a Christian artist with my $27 Foundations Course: https://www.matttommeymentoring.com/foundations
If you’re a Christian artist who loves God but constantly second-guesses when it comes to hearing God’s voice, this video is for you.
Many sincere creatives become so afraid of missing God that fear starts masquerading as discernment. They question their desires, creative ideas, opportunities, and even their calling until they become paralyzed and stop moving altogether. But God has not given you a spirit of fear.
In this video, I’ll show you how to:
Hear God’s voice and recognize the Holy Spirit’s leadership in your creative life without treating every decision like a spiritual minefield.
We’ll talk about:
● The difference between fear and biblical discernment
● What Jeremiah 17 really means for believers with a new heart
● How God uses desire within relationships
● Why your confidence ultimately rests not in your ability to hear perfectly—but in your Father’s ability to lead you faithfully
You’ll discover how to:
● Recognize fear-based accusation versus the Holy Spirit’s leadership
● Discern creative desires without distrusting everything inside you
● Understand God’s voice through Scripture, relationship, and the inner witness of the Spirit
● Take faithful creative steps without waiting for 100% certainty
● Walk in greater freedom, confidence, and peace as an artist who follows Jesus
God gave you creative gifts, capacity, imagination, and desire on purpose. You don’t have to live afraid of them. You can learn to walk with Him, create with Him, and trust Him to redirect you whenever necessary.
And friend—if fear has caused you to bury something God put inside you, maybe it’s time to stop deleting the song.

If you’ve ever wondered how to make money as an artist without compromising the kind of work you feel called to create, this video is for you.
So many artists struggle with selling art because they’ve absorbed the idea that business, marketing, or making money somehow cheapens the creative gift. But learning how to sell your art with integrity is not the opposite of being faithful to your creativity. It can actually be part of stewarding it well.
In this video, I share a Kingdom perspective on what it means to build a sustainable creative life while staying true to the work God has put on your heart. We’ll talk about why selling your art doesn’t have to feel pushy or manipulative, how the marketplace can become a place of real impact and influence, and why faith and practical business strategy can work together.
You’ll also learn:
why making money as an artist doesn’t make your work less authentic
how to think differently about selling art and serving people
why pricing, marketing, and business can be acts of stewardship
how provision can create more time, margin, resources, and opportunity
why you don’t have to choose between meaningful art and a sustainable business
practical ways to move forward with greater confidence and integrity
After more than 30 years as a professional artist and over 15 years mentoring creatives around the world, I’ve seen this over and over:
You can stay faithful to what’s on your heart to create and still learn how to sell your art well.
If you’re ready to stop seeing creativity and business as enemies and start building a sustainable creative life with greater clarity, confidence, and faith, this video will help you take that next step.
And I’d love to hear from you: What is God showing you right now about your art, your business, or your next step? Let me know in the comments.

God is waking up something in people right now—and if you’ve been feeling a renewed stirring to create, dream, or finally take your creativity seriously, I don’t believe that’s something you should ignore.
Maybe a creative dream you thought was gone keeps coming back. Maybe you haven’t created in years, but suddenly you feel drawn to begin again. Or maybe you’re realizing that your creativity isn’t just something you do—it’s part of who God created you to be.
In this video, I share why I believe God is awakening and reawakening Christian artists and creatives in this season, what that awakening has to do with your identity in Christ, and why your creativity has a much greater Kingdom purpose than simply making beautiful things.
We’ll explore how God can use art, beauty, story, music, writing, design, and other forms of creative expression as places where people encounter His truth, goodness, healing, hope, and presence.
I’ll also share a revelation God gave me years ago about the relationship between faith and creativity—and why creating in partnership with the Holy Spirit can become a powerful way of giving visible form to what God is revealing in the unseen.
If something inside you has been saying, “It’s time to create again,” this message is for you.
Your creative calling didn’t expire because life got complicated. God hasn’t forgotten what He put inside you. And the dreams He planted in your heart may be stirring again for a reason.
🙏 Be sure to watch until the end, because I’ll pray specifically for God to awaken and reawaken everything He has placed inside you—and give you the courage to faithfully respond.
If this message resonates with you, leave a comment and tell me: What is God awakening in you creatively right now?

You thought God called you to be an artist, but these days, you’re not so sure and you’re thinking about giving up. If that’s you, then this message is for you.
Maybe things haven’t happened as quickly as you expected. Doors haven’t opened. Your art or business isn’t growing the way you hoped. You’ve been faithful for months—or even years—and you’re beginning to wonder, “Did I miss God? Am I on the wrong path? Should I just give up?”
God wants to encourage you today: don’t give up yet.
In Psalm 27:13–14, David reveals what kept him from losing hope in the middle of disappointment and uncertainty: he believed he would see the goodness of God in the land of the living.
And then he gives us the key:
“Wait on the Lord; be of good courage, and He shall strengthen your heart.”
Waiting on God doesn’t mean sitting still and doing nothing. It means looking to Him with expectant hope, standing your ground when circumstances tell you to quit, and allowing Him to strengthen your heart as you continue faithfully stewarding what He’s placed inside you.
If you’re a Christian artist who feels discouraged, behind, overlooked, or unsure about what God is doing in this season, I pray this video reminds you of the truth:
God is still working. Your calling still matters. And this is not the time to give up.
Keep your eyes on Him. Keep creating. Keep believing. And keep going.
📖 Psalm 27:13–14

Have you ever walked into your creative space only to feel completely uninspired? It’s a debilitating feeling most artists face on a regular basis. In today’s video, I’ll be teaching you a simple process God taught me in my own studio that’s helped me to reconnect to Him and to the creative gift He gave me.
