John Chisum is a veteran Christian songwriter with over 400 of his compositions recorded and in print. With a career spanning four decades, John’s delightful calling is to download time-proven insights on songwriting that can set you up for the greatest songwriting years of your life. In this solo episode, John helps you to abandon the urban myth that you are “waiting on God” for the inspiration to write great songs. He shares boldly that what most Christian songwriters are waiting on will never come and how to end the needless passivity of expecting downloads and inspirational lightning strikes as a creator. Key insights shared in this episode are: Why it’s dangerous to have a philosophy of waiting for inspiration to strike Why we shouldn’t beg for God’s presence to “show up” The real New Testament perspective on the presence of God by His Spirit What it means to be “in-spirited” as Christian songwriters The need to cultivate a deep awareness of the presence of God every day The Apostle Paul’s prayer for “true enlightenment” How to be an inspiring person and live an inspired life Taking inspired action in life and songwriting Why gaining significant songwriting skills is as important as inspiration and why not having them is the real reason you’re not writing at a higher level This episode is a must-listen for any aspiring writer who wants to make every day count. John doesn’t believe in tips, tricks, and hacks, but in a solid process for songwriting built on dedication and true creativity.
