The Creative Call: An Artist's Response to the Way of the Spirit - Paperback

by Janice Elsheimer (Author)

Perhaps you're a "closet writer" who's been scribbling in journals for years.

You may have a knack for photography, drawing, gardening, cooking, or some other creative gift. Or you may long to express yourself creatively, but have yet to discover your unique talents.
