Breaking Perfectionism & Writing with God W/Alivia Roan - Ep. 15


Listen Later

In this soul-deep episode (15), De Ana sits down with writer and creative coach Alivia Roan to explore the spiritual power of writing storytelling—not just as a craft, but as worship and communion with God.


Whether you’re a worship leader with half-written lyrics in your notes app or a fiction writer 10 years into a book you’ve never finished—this episode is your permission to pick up the pen again.


Together, we dive into the heart of creative obedience: how to write with God, how to move past fear and perfectionism, and how stories—like songs—can carry presence, light, and healing.


🎧 In this Episode We Cover:

  • How Kingdom fiction writing carry truth and transformation
  • The cultural urgency for Holy Spirit-led media
  • The trap of perfectionism and why it’s rooted in fear
  • How legalism and shame choke creativity
  • How play and curiosity intersect with spiritual intimacy and creativity
  • Writing as worship
  • What Jesus’ parables teach us about storytelling
  • Why reading the Bible as story matters

📣 This episode is for the worship leader or Kingdom creative who’s ever thought:

“I have lyrics, stories, or ideas stirring — but I never seem to finish them.”

"How do I write with God instead of just for Him?"

"Why can’t I just finish this book/story already?"


👇 Let us know in the comments:

What story—or song—has God been stirring in you to release? And what might change if you saw the writing process as worship, too?
