Jess DiSabatino: Does God Actually Care About The Arts? | 001
In the debut episode of Renaissance Creative Leadership Podcast, Jess Sanchez sits down with pastor, leader, and communicator Jess DiSabatino to explore a foundational question: Does God actually care about the arts?
From the divine craftsmanship of Exodus 31 to the prophetic role of artists today, we unpack what Scripture reveals about God's heart for creativity.
We also take a look back at church history particularly the shift that happened after the Middle Ages, when the Protestant Reformation, while vital in many ways, inadvertently de-emphasized the role of beauty, imagination, and the arts in worship and theology. This departure helped form a lingering paradigm in modern church culture: that the arts are secondary or even unnecessary.
This episode is both a theological and pastoral encouragement for anyone wrestling with their place in the Church or the world as a creative. Whether you're a painter, poet, filmmaker, or musician, you’ll walk away with a deeper sense of purpose, and a reminder that God is not indifferent to your work; He is the One who called you to it.
