Creative Conversations with Dionne White

Arts


In this episode Dionne talks about Cultivating and Stewarding Inspiration and how we have to  guard it fan it  contemplate  it And our connection and health of our relationship with God is key to all of it and it shows in our art. She discusses something she calls exhausting or thoroughly examining topics or creative projects. This can put us in a place of "Divine Frustration" but if we persevere through the transition and yield to the "frustration" it will produce incredible results.  She describes inspiration to striking a match and how if we just watch it burn and not steward it, the inspiration will not manifest and it will burn out and have been just a nice thought.  She touches on a challenging subject of abandoning ship early or stopping before we reach the blessing and likens this to the story in the bible in John chapter 5 - The man by the pool of Bethesda. She shares her very real and vulnerable points of her own story of how she has to guard herself against self sabotage mentally, emotionally, and aristically as she calls out the thief of comparison and how the struggle of this is very real for artists.  This informative yet challenging message will stir you to go deeper both in connection with God and thoroughly examine creative avenues so we are walking in integrity with greater character. Her hope is that a spark is ignited in you to go deeper and blow on the coals of your inspired soul!  --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/dionne-white/support
