  God Never Asked You to Put Your Art On Hold 28.07.2026 10min

  Send us Fan Mail The lie sounds responsible: “I’ll make art when life calms down.” But if you’re a Christian artist with a full-time job, a family, and a mind that won’t stop second-guessing your calling, that calm season can turn into a moving target you never catch. We’re pushing back on that idea with a simple, freeing truth: God doesn’t grow artists in perfect seasons. He grows them in surrendered ones, right in the middle of real life. We share the story of Billy, a working artist with ...

  God Told Me to Tell You This 21.07.2026 20min

  Send us Fan Mail If you have ever sat down to create and felt a wave of doubt hit first, you are not alone. We talk to the part of the artist’s life that rarely makes it into a portfolio: the mental and spiritual pressure that tries to convince you you are behind, not enough, or destined to struggle. This is a direct reminder of identity in Christ for Christian artists who feel resistance on every side and need a clear, steady foundation again. We walk through what God says is true abo...

After pouring time and money into a major art show that barely broke even, Matt Tommy finds himself driving home frustrated and confused, then hears a clear instruction that changes how he sells his art: “Go home and get your studio ready to sell.” What follows isn’t a new gimmick or a better funnel, but a deeper, steadier way to build an art business as a Christian artist. We talk through three principles that have guided Matt for...

  Get Clear on What God Wants You to Create (4 Shifts) 08.07.2026 26min

  Send us Fan Mail Trying to do everything can feel productive, but for most artists it is the fastest path to confusion, burnout, and a body of work that never quite feels like you. We share Joyce’s story, a working potter who felt that constant tension between what she knew would sell and what she sensed God was actually asking her to make. Once she stopped living in the middle, her confidence rose, her studio output increased, and the second guessing started to fade. We break down fou...

That single belief can shape how you cre...

  Send us Fan Mail Join the Foundations Course at https://www.matttommeymentoring.com/foundations Most artists are trained to measure “provision” by one thing: money.

  Artists Are God’s Secret Weapon 31.03.2026 11min

  Send us Fan Mail Artists tend to notice the cracks and the glory at the same time and that can feel like a burden until you realize it might be a blueprint.

  God, Money & Artists: How to Break The Starving Artist Mentality for Good 24.03.2026 18min

  Send us Fan Mail The most painful surprise I’ve seen after years of mentoring Christian artists is this: the ones who struggle the most are often the most gifted. Not because they lack skill, opportunities, or even faith, but because they’re living under an almost invisible belief that making a living as an artist is hard or even wrong. I call it the starving artist mentality, and if it’s been running in the background of your decisions, it can quietly turn your creative calling into a life o...
