On this episode of Manly with Andy, artist and author Jake Weidmann shares his powerful story behind the book Old Soul, New Creation. Jake opens up about his long path to embracing his God-given calling as an artist, the role of mentors and legacy in shaping his life, and the way God provided during seasons of deep uncertainty—even when he was living the "starving artist" reality. From crafting sacred art like The Old Rugged Cross to launching a family jewelry business born in prayer, Jake reveals how creativity becomes a pathway to sonship and relationship with God. This conversation will challenge you to see your own work—whether art, business, or family—as a reflection of the Creator's design.
