The Running A.M.O.K. Podcast 6/15/08 Dealing with Failure and Rejection

Download this episode (25 min)
I'm in the process of reading a great book right now called Thriving as an Artist in the Church by Rory Noland. The book discusses the many issues artists of all disciplines can face and how we should deal with them. Each chapter of the book starts with a scenario then has some questions to answer about it. The chapter then gives some really good biblical advice on dealing with the issue followed by some review questions. It's a great resource for any artistic person wanting to serve God with his or her gifting. As I was working through the questions from the chapter on dealing with failure and rejection, I found myself i some serious self-examination and thought my listeners might benefit from not only hearing my answers but answering the questions for themselves.

Failure and rejection seems to be a fact of life for artists, something that most of us have dealt with or will deal with. Check out the podcast and answer the questions for yourself on the companion blog at http://amokarts.mypodcast.com Thanks to Rory Noland for granting me permission to use his questions, you can also find a link to his website on the companion blog.
