Expand Your Mind! Rich Kirkpatrick Reveals How to Be Productive AND More Creative

Has the arts industry...or even ministry.... become an obstacle to your love of art? 

Many creatives both inside and outside the church have been struggling to find the balance between making a living and being free to explore their creative passions. 

To help you find the sweet spot between productivity and creative magic, we're talking today with Rich Kirkpatrick - author, coach and speaker on the topics of creativity, faith and leadership. His latest book is MINDBLOWN: Unlock Your Creative Genius by Bridging Science and Magic, and he is also the author of "The Six Hats of the Worship Leader."  As a creative mentor, musician, songwriter and recording artist, he has an empathetic understanding of the challenges that creatives face both in ministry and in modern culture. 

In this episode, we explore how your faith can help you bridge the gap between being productive and being free artistically, so you can truly enjoy the gifts God has given us as creatives in every sense of the word. 

In this episode, you'll discover how to:

•  Deal with the unique struggles you're facing within ministry as a creative artist. 
•  Unlock the relationship between logic and imagination in your creative life. 
• Become more in tune with the different kinds of thinkers that you have to work and interact with in your career. 
• Make lasting changes in your approach that will unlock more inspiration, avoid frustration and create a spring of new creative energy.
