Michael invites singer-songwriter Carly Taich and producer Jimmy Smith on to the podcast to discuss what it looks like for Christians to pursue art (in this case, music) within the church as a ministry, a hobby, or a profession. They share personal anecdotes about their various struggles in the professional-ministry space in the church, discuss tent-making and other means of support for artists, and give a clear charge to both artists and non-artists about how to move forward in a market-dominated field.
Stay tuned at the end of the episode to hear a rough-mix sneak peak of Carly Taich’s new single, “Prove Me Wrong,” produced by Jimmy Smith and Michael Minkoff. It’s the first single off Carly’s forthcoming record Insomnie, which she is raising money to make.

Every bit of support makes a difference. If she doesn’t reach her goal by December 1, 2022, she doesn’t get any of it.

I just listened to this episode and believe it was His timing that I did!
I would love to talk to you about how I’m stepping into doing what the Lord has called me to do!
The start of the story is at bigheartstudios.org – you can read my testimony at a link from there.
I relate to so many things said in this episode and even though it hasn’t made sense to me have been led to keep my business and have the studio out of my business verses traditional ministry. Still though, it takes money to do what He’s told me to do!
Thank you for sharing your thoughts on this. Know that there are others out there that feel the same!
