Summary In this episode of the Faith in Work podcast, artists Jake and Hannah Weidmann discuss how their work disciples them, how their work as artists has revealed to them different aspects of God and how their marriage has also shaped their art and business. The conversation emphasizes the importance of storytelling in art, the balance between craftsmanship and entrepreneurship, and the encouragement for others to embrace their creativity as a form of worship.

It’s a small way to support the mission—and it means a lot to us.    Highlights On Work Discipling Us   "Something we always say about our work is we feel very much discipled by our work privately before we're ever given permission to share it publicly. And so something that like putting our hands to like tangible embodied work, think is, especially in a digital age and the culture that we live in, we just notice more people want tangible and slowness. And so I think imitating God in that way and creating and it's very much a human experience has been something that I think the arts do extraordinarily well."- Hannah Weidmann On Worship and Liturgy   "In all of the different art forms that I practice, I'm always looking back into the annals of history and rehearsing the strokes of past masters. And that's what gives me a common language for my art. In a lot of ways, I think that, you know, craft... is like the liturgical practice of my art. It gives me a common language to use and utilize so that when I do speak, I'm speaking with a common language that's been spoken for hundreds, if not thousands of years. That so much of what I do in creating meaning through my work is upholding sacred symbols. And so if I don't have an understanding of what that symbolism is and what it points to, then I'm just a clanging gong, resounding symbol. And that's what a lot of, unfortunately, a lot of postmodernist art is about. It's about creating as you feel. It's not following any sort of precedent laid down by previous generations, and it points back at itself."- Jake Weidmann Resources <ul> <li><a href= "https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ODHLQswsXJMeYMEDU9dGkrSO66qI6RWk7paFHIPnobY/edit?tab=t.0" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Download the episode transcript here</a></li> <li aria-level="1"><a href="https://www.theweidmanns.com/" target= "_blank" rel="noopener">Jake & Hannah's Website</a></li> <li aria-level="1"><a href="http://jakeweidmann.com/" target= "_blank" rel="noopener">Jake Weidmann's Website</a></li> <li aria-level="1"><a href="http://everydayheirloomco.com/" target= "_blank" rel="noopener">Everyday Heirloom Website</a></li> <li><a href="https://made-to-last.simplecast.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Made To Last Podcast</a></li> <li><a href= "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SXueff8_SVM"> Suffering Servant in a Single Stroke by Jake Weidmann</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.youtube.com/@JakeWeidmannArtist" target= "_blank" rel="noopener">More videos of Jake's Art</a></li> <li>Jakes Book: <a href="https://a.co/d/951kJ75">Old Soul, New Creation</a></li> </ul>
