Creativity, Fear, and Self Doubt | Chuck Swindoll

What if you could sit down with one of the greatest creative influencers of all-time and ask him anything?

Well...I did just that.

I recently pulled out of the archives an interview I did with one of my life-long friends and mentors Chuck Swindoll.

Over the span of his career and ministry, he has been one of the greatest influences on my life. We have been dear friends since I was a boy growing up. Through the years, our family has been close and I’ve had the honor of working on projects with their family and ministry for over thirty years.

The ripple effect of your life can have a massive effect on others.

As a child, I studied his disciplines; his work ethic, his commitment to his craft, his family, and his platform. As I watched, his fruit grew on other people’s trees around the globe through over seventy books, his sermons, his publishing company, and his radio ministry. His down-line of mentors eventually became my mentors.

There are moments in life where you strike gold. This interview is one of them.

I want to share this conversation with you as a gift as I hope it will impact you as much as it has me.
If you are a writer, painter, or creative, this talk will be one of the greatest investments of time you could make in your development as an artist. This talk is one of my cherished moments in my life to learn the secrets of creativity from a master who leverages every gift to glorify God.

If you want to learn from a master, grab a coffee, get quiet, and fill your cup by watching our talk. You’ll be encouraged, gain a renewed hope, and focus on your creative future.
