Guest Bio:

Today on the podcast Rachel will be chatting with Matt Tommey. Matt is a woven sculpture artist from Asheville, North Carolina and an internationally known Christian speaker and author of multiple books. He is also an art mentor for artists around the world through his "Created to Thrive" art mentoring program and The Thriving Christian Artist podcast. 

In 2009, God called Matt to "raise up an army of artists to reveal His glory all over the earth."  Since then, Matt has given his life to helping artists thrive spiritually, creatively and financially through creating live events, resources and online opportunities that equip artists to live the life they were divinely designed to live in the Kingdom.  

As an artist, Matt's work has been featured in many magazines, shows and exhibitions and is mostly commissioned by private clients for luxury mountain and coastal homes around the country.  In 2011, Matt was recognized by the Smithsonian American Art Museum's Renwick Gallery as an American Artist Under 40 and in 2018 was recognized as one of the Best Artist Mentors in the country by Professional Artist Magazine.

In this Episode we talk about about:

• How through healing past childhood abuse & adult additions he was able to hear God’s calling for his life
• How what you’re going through now will give you the authority & expertise to help others coming along behind you
• When finding your identity in Christ, this gives you the confidence to step out and be the best artist, entrepreneur, worker, or family member you were meant to be
• How God did not design artists to starve, but rather to thrive for His glory.
