Woodworking, Wonder, and Worshipping God Through Our Gifts with Everett Conaway
Manage episode 401942512 series 3548044
In this episode, Travis engages in a fascinating conversation with Everett Conaway on the art of woodworking and the themes of beauty, creativity, and wonder. Everett also shares thoughts on how his faith converges with his craft and how he sees/feels God's presence in the workshop. The two also discuss worshipping God through our gifts and imaging him in small acts of creating things. Everett shares about how his woodworking hobby grew into a small business where he now creates everything from small custom gifts to custom furniture of all kinds (check it out below).
There's a powerful, unplanned seeming "God wink" moment that happens during their conversation. Travis and Everett also reminisce on a cool story about a special musical instrument Everett designed that allows Travis' disabled brother Jeremy to make music. All this and much more!
