The God and Gigs Show
Is It Wrong for Christian Creators to Keep a Traditional Job?
You've heard it over and over - "take the leap of faith"..."pursue your passion"...
...and all of the voices seem to say that being a creator is all or nothing.
If you have a 'backup' or traditional 9-to-5 job, somehow, you're not doing it right.
In an age where so many options are available to creators to help them monetize and grow careers, the pressure is on many faith-focused, well-meaning Christian creative people to leave their jobs and try to earn their living strictly from their creative gifts.
Is that true? Or is it a flawed perspective that gets people to take steps they don't have to take?
We explore why the "full-time creator" might not be for everyone in this episode.
