07: Life Tapestry
Guest: Megan Shirley
It's amazing how God weaves together the tapestry of our lives, isn't it? Megan traces the threads of how God led her from degrees in studio art and media communication to a year of teaching art in Spain, several months of Facebook Live art lessons during quarantine, and now as a graphic designer in the UK.
- "Art [isn't] a pagan thing. Actually, art started with God at the beginning."
- "The moment He called me to Spain, I felt a love for the students I was going to get to teach."
- Megan's Art Lessons
- "Take a moment after a conversation that went really well, and think about what you got passionate about in that conversation."
- "The Body of Christ is made up of a lot of different people, and so all those skills are needed."
- "Being in the place where God asks you to be is better than trying to make yourself fit in a place that you feel you should be."
