You might already be familiar with the Exodus story of the golden calf. Things have declined quickly since God’s commissioning of the Wise-Hearted ones. Though God has proven time and time again that He is faithful to meet the Israelites’ practical and spiritual needs in big ways, their fear gets the better of them.

Throughout the Wise-Hearted Ones, we’ve seen how God holistically provides His people with everything they need to serve in the areas He calls them to. God’s gifts of creative and spiritual knowledge and skill provided Bezalel with the practical means to live out his calling.

In this podcast episode, host Lisa Smith and guest Marlita Hill dive deeper into what it means to be wise-hearted, how to wait on God’s timing, and why it doesn’t really matter whether you bloom late or bloom early.

Continuing the Wise-Hearted Ones series, Lisa Smith dives into the artistic giftings God gave to master artisans when he ordained them to create the Tabernacle. Take time to consider this self-sacrificial call, filled with joy, freedom, and efficacy, and ponder what that means for us as we seek to bring to life the gifts the Spirit of God has filled us with.

In the last episode, we explored the unique role of artists in the biblical context — particularly as highlighted in the story of the Tabernacle project in Exodus. In this blog post, we'll explore the episode highlights from Called By Name. Called By Heart., focusing on the role of artists as leaders in shaping culture and spiritual experiences. God's choice in Exodus demonstrates a profound truth: He often calls upon the most unlikely to fulfill his purposes.
