Are you a Christian writer feeling overwhelmed, burnt out, or unsure what surrendering your writing career to God really looks like?

In this episode of Heart for Creatives, we dive into a raw, Spirit-led conversation about what it means to walk through a personal teardown season with Jesus—and how that journey can lead to unshakable peace, deeper purpose, and a writing life fully aligned with God’s heart.

We’ll unpack the deeper meaning of Shalom (God’s perfect peace), explore the painful but necessary refinement process, and share biblical encouragement for writers who feel like their world is crumbling after surrender.

My friend, peace is not the absence of chaos—but the presence of wholeness that transforms how you show up, on the page and in real life.

In this episode, you'll discover:

➡️ Why peace from God often begins with a teardown

➡️ What Shalom Shalom really means for Christian creatives

➡️ How surrendering your writing unlocks clarity, confidence, and purpose

➡️ 4 practical steps you can take today to walk in God’s peace

This is your invitation to trade burnout for breakthrough—and let God rebuild your creative life on His solid foundation.
