397 - The Importance Of Art in God’s Kingdom with Darrow Miller

Send us a text When you look at all the difficulties facing the world today - like poverty, hunger, war, depression, and so on - it can be easy to think your calling to art doesn’t matter that much to the world. But don’t despair! Your calling to be an artist is a calling from God, and that’s never a small or insignificant thing. As my guest on this episode of the Thriving Christian Artist podcast, Darrow Miller, will tell you, the arts can play a very important part in advancing the Kingdom. His newest book, A Call For Balladeers, takes a close look at our worldviews as they relate to beauty and art and their role in the discipling of nations. So give a listen to the podcast for Darrow’s inspiring take on how God can use your art for His purposes. And while you’re at it, go to https://disciplenations.org/ to see how Darrow and the Disciple Nations Alliance are advancing the Kingdom of God by discipling all nations.
