The Art of Ministry - A Christian Creativity & Arts Podcast

Have you ever been tasked with creating something really punchy, brief, but with a lot of impact?
Well, in my (Jon's) opinion, our next guest is an expert at this. Lochy Cupit has been making short, powerful presentations for a long time, and this time we talk about his newest creation - the God in 60 Seconds video series!
Lochy has crafted both video and social media reels that share about Jesus in a way that is striking, thought-provoking and vibrant. Come listen to this exciting episode that is sure to help your own thinking through creating mini presentations with real focus!

Have you ever wondered what it might have been like to experience the story of Easter firsthand? 
James Krieg, pastor of Bethel Christian Church in Adelaide, created an Easter experience unlike many ever seen in churches across Australia and the world. Using the church building, he and the church community assembled elements representing the significant moments in Jesus' journey to the cross, his death, and his resurrection. 
Lochy and Jon got to speak to James all about the experience, how it touched lives for the gospel, and how everyone else can do something like 'Easter Uncovered' in your own church! 
Note: James is building a website easteruncovered.au (under construction) which will serve to explain more about the 'Easter Uncovered' experience. Watch this space! 
Thank you for your listening! Don't forget you can follow us on Facebook & on our landing page -https://theartofministry.podbean.com/ 
And if you're in Adelaide, come to "A Winter Word"! James and others will be preaching the Bible at this wonderful event. Link here - https://www.facebook.com/awinterword

Hey everyone! WOA! Do we have a special guest for you today!
With great excitement, Lochy and I interviewed Jordan from the Aussie band 'River Movement', a hip-hop/acoustic group who shares Jesus with their audiences by means of some awesome grooves. 
The show covers the band's origins, concerts, songs, style and inspirational stories from the musical odyssey that they've been on for some years. PLUS! Below, in the show notes, there is information about the band and where to find their music! 
Thank you for your continued listening and support! Peace, the AOM Podcast

Hi everyone, before the next show comes out, here's an invitation to come to an event I am involved with - 'The Work of RESToring' - with Engage Work Faith, Adelaide. It's going to be a great event all about rest, and the rest that Jesus provides.
Blessings, Jon
Tickets: https://engageworkfaith.org.au/upcoming-events/
Tickets close soon (Monday 27th May 2024) - so grab one quick for an event not to be missed! :) 
ABOUT THE EVENT: 
How many time-saving devices do you own?Yet we can still all feel time-poor; often exhausted, and, at times, close to burning out. We may be designed to work, but we are wired to rest. Sometimes our bodies are resting but our minds just won't stop buzzing with what we should or could be doing. How do we wind down enough to find actual rest? With the help of Clinical Psychologist Dr Jonathan Andrews and a panel of experts, we’ll unpack this topic in a practical way. Carving out a couple of hours to consider how you can find rest for yourself could be game-changing for your downtime. Rest assured, you'll leave this event with a renewed approach to the importance of rest and some tips on how to achieve it. Perhaps it will also provoke curiosity in how Jesus speaks to the universal humanity of mind, body and soul.

Thursday 30 May 2024 from 6:00 PM - 8:15 PM (UTC+09:30)

Good day to you!
We welcome you to Episode 22, where Lochy takes us through Bible memorisation!
How did Lochy memorise the Book of Mark? Why did he do this? What did he learn? And how can we all memorise Scripture as well? All of these questions and more are discussed in this exciting episode, where we consider the importance of remembering Scripture. A key takeaway we hope you see is that anyone can begin Bible memorisation, and then improve on it as it becomes a helpful regular practice!
God's Word is living and active. What a wonderful thing it is that we can memorise it and dwell upon it, and speak it, in our everyday lives. 
Once again we thank you for your support and listening!
And remember, we'd love to hear YOUR stories around memorising the Scriptures. Maybe you memorised a verse to read in a church drama or performance, or regularly memorise Scripture. Maybe you'd like to learn more about this practice. 
God bless and have a terrific week ahead.

Greetings friends! Well, what an opportunity and privilege it was to speak with Alaina Frost from One50 Dance for episode 20! We hope you love the show this week!
We cover God and dance, the Bible and dance, the organisation One50 Dance, and even touch on some famous dancers too. Also explored is creativity around dance, and how we can all dance before the Lord, just as David did. What a celebration it is to serve God in such diverse ways across the Arts! 
Below are some links about One50 Dance, as well as a link to their public fund (this gets mentioned too in the show). Can you support them? Here's one way you can!

YES! We are back in 2024 and guess what... so many people have asked advice about how to create a podcast. So instead of continuing to give ideas and replies, why not create a whole episode full of advice about all aspects of podcasting? 
If you want to make a podcast, look no further! We discuss ideas, tools, equipment, software, hardware, communication dynamics, passion for topic, prayer and more! If you've wanted to know how to use multimedia and create a podcast, it's all here. 
Thank you again so much for your continued support - bring on 2024! Let's explore sharing the Gospel through the arts together! God bless and take care, Jon (The Art of Ministry)

Lochy and I have been so thankful for this year. We have a long list of thank yous! 
We appreciate you all and can't wait to catch up with you again in 2024. 
All of God's blessings, The Art of Ministry (Lochy & Jon)

Merry Christmas to you! It's nearly New Years, and we have a wonderful guest to cap off a big year for The Art of Ministry Podcast. We have Navy Jones - a singer/songwriter who shares God's love through song. His voice, I think you'll agree, is a wonderful gift from the Lord, as is his playing. And our chat went through a huge range of topics, from his testimony, performing music live, GK Chesterton, studio recording, and ultimately thinking on Jesus. It's a musical feast! We hope you enjoy the show!
