We all need to create, to be a part of a process that brings to the world something beautiful, good, and true, in order to allow our souls to come to life.

Erwin McManus & Makoto Fujimura

Makoto Fujimura interviewed his good friend Erwin McManus during a book launch of his newest book The Artisan Soul at Space 38|39 in NYC. Erwin Raphael McManus is an author, thought leader, and founder of Mosaic church in Los Angeles. He not only calls us to reclaim our creative essence, but reveals how we can craft our lives into a work of art.

Erwin wrote this book during a time he was frustrated with Christians. God spoke to him about sharing HIS beauty to the world and so he wrote The Artisan Soul. The book is for everyone – not just artists. It’s for anyone who has been told that they are less than what they were created to be. The most tragic moments in our life are the most beautiful. God makes ALL things beautiful in its time. We need to access the essential nature of being human and live out our lives as artisans. Be unpredictable!
