• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Take a step forward. Enjoy the process. Dare to listen to God's Voice and hope for the impossible. In Small Beginnings, Sara Thurman, artist, author, and founder of a Christian business called Acts 1:8 Blessings, pens her inspiring true story of becoming an artist by pursuing God's calling. Sara shares how her creative path intertwines with our own impossible journey by giving hope to what seems unreachable. Small Beginnings is anchored on Sara's belief that we all have an innate ability to create and it will teach you how to discover and focus on your own gifts to build a life and work full of purpose. This woven tapestry of devotional stories and testimonies gives light to the steps she took to reach goals beyond her wildest dreams. For more than 56 years, this former teacher and public school administrator never considered herself an artist. In fact, Sara had never taken a single art class. After believing the truth of a new identity spoken over her, she began to paint and sell her faith-based art. In two short years, she has painted and sold over 800 pieces of Christian inspired art. Sara writes as if you two are talking in her living room or art studio. These poignant and relatable stories go beyond the art world. She will have you laughing, crying and believing you, too, can reach the impossible and be a servant of God.

Autorenporträt

Sara and Wayman Thurman had both recently retired, and they wanted to share their passion for Jesus with others. So, they began to create. Wayman built birdhouses, bird feeders, and other useful creations. Sara painted. From watercolor to acrylic, she responded to a divine prompting to become an artist. Sara's inspiration comes from her time in nature and growing up on a ranch in southwest Texas, her time in daily worship, her love of Monet and the Impressionistic styles, and inspiration from the artists like DeAnn Hebert among others on Pinterest. Wayman and Sara loved working together in their mission serving art business helping each other thrive in each of their own skill sets. After nearly 35 years of marriage, Wayman passed away in January 2020. Sara continues painting and writing in her grief process of losing "My Man" as she fondly called Wayman. She misses their specific niches and skillsets in their servant based leadership interactions that kept their thriving small business excelling. Sara is now in the process of learning more about the accounting aspects of the business as well shipping her paintings all over the country. Sara is currently working on two books to be released in the summer of 2020-the companion Journal to Small Beginnings: the Journey to the Impossible and a journaling style book sharing authentically Sara's first 100 days of grief, living without her life partner and companion, Wayman. A third book is in the works to be titled 27,000 Miles - the story of Sara and Wayman's marriage to be released before the end of 2020.
