This I Believe: How to Prioritize Your Spiritual Growth w/ Greg Johnson, Music Director

It’s one thing to be a creative who has a connection to God.

It’s another to know why.

If there’s any musician who is serious about knowing what you believe as a Christian, it’s Greg Johnson. With years of experience in music ministry, he has a passion for helping musicians and creatives to embrace an authentic relationship with God.

Greg’s understanding of theology and ministry was a key element in landing his current role as the director of Music Ministry at Northview Christian Church under the leadership of Dr. Hart Ramsey.

In this raw, powerful and revealing talk, Greg reveals why we must know what we believe, and why a strong and secure faith is so important.

You'll hear conversations about staying consistent without burning out. We also dig into finding your creative voice along the way, even when ministry, family, and work are all pulling at the same hours.

Whether you're just exploring your creative gifts, or you've been creating professionally for years, this show gives Christian creators practical tools and spiritual encouragement to fully embrace God's creative calling - at any level of skill or vocational ability. The goal is to help you create consistently and embrace God's will for your creative life without sacrificing your calling.

Your host and founder is Allen C. Paul — podcaster, musician, author, and speaker based in South Florida.  We started this show to help creators thrive in faith, business, and creativity through simple, practical solutions.
