The celebration of ‘Old Soul, New Creation,’ continues as Jake and Hannah invite you further into Jake’s new book with behind-the-scene conversations on the podcast including the overarching theme of prayer that maps out the layout of the book. Inspired by a genuine framework of prayer in Jake’s life as an artist, the book follows suit in that four total prayers, written by Jake, are included throughout. How does one “pray without ceasing” as scripture tells us to. Jake breaks down a monastic Latin phrase he lives by, “Ora et labora,” translated as “pray your work,” and what this looks like practically as a dedicated husband, a father to four children and an ever-increasing demand for his time. Jake encourages listeners to “learn to love what must be done” and turn even the most mundane routines of life into prayer. Season 2 of the podcast concludes with Jake reading his final prayer, “The Maker’s Prayer” from his book.Show notes:THE BOOK IS OFFICIALLY LAUNCHED! ‘Old Soul, New Creation: Experiencing God Through a Life of Art and Faith’ https://www.amazon.com/dp/1400246849FREE GIFTS for a limited time only when you order Jake’s book (includes a digital download of the book’s 1st chapter – annotated by Jake in his beautiful handwriting, a digital download of the artwork, ‘The Maker’s Prayer’ from the book and an exclusive discount to the JW gallery! https://www.artistandmasterpenman.com/oldsoulnewcreationJake’s Classic Hymn Collection: https://www.jakeweidmann.com/search?q=hymn*&type=product“The Old Rugged Cross” performed by Bowen Abel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m0_j_MrTRYc&list=RDm0_j_MrTRYc&start_radio=1“The Old Rugged Cross” music video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dGxtDNGo-8E&list=RDdGxtDNGo-8E&start_radio=1“Be Thou My Vision” performed by Christy and Nathan Nockels: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VGizCGInOaw“Be Thou My Vision” music video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HKN1JO8ZP80&list=RDHKN1JO8ZP80&start_radio=1Jake’s Online Art Gallery: JakeWeidmann.comEveryday Heirloom Fine Jewelry Collection: https://everydayheirloomco.comFollow Jake and Hannah on Instagram @jakeweidmann @hannahweidmann @madetolastpodcast @everydayheirloom
Jake’s book, ‘Old Soul, New Creation,’ features several artworks from his Classic Hymns Collection including “His Eye is on the Sparrow,” “Be Thou My Vision,”and “The Old Rugged Cross.” In this episode, Jake and Hannah give further insight into these hymns, their origin stories and ultimately how the couple aims to “dust off” the old hymns so that we continue to carry them into the future so that they may serve the Church until Jesus returns. Jake and Hannah share what it was like to collaborate with musical artists Bowen Abel and Christy and Nathan Nockels to better share these powerful hymns with a new generation.

Jake shares how he designed the front cover and the thought process behind it, including a fun surprise when you first open the book!

Season 2 of Made to Last is celebrating the release of Jake’s new book, ‘Old Soul, New creation’! We’re kicking off our second season with an introduction to Jake’s book: what it’s about, the backstory of how it came to be, and who it’s for (psst! if you thought it was only for aspiring artists, think again)! ‘Old Soul, New Creation’ invites you to see yourself as creative – because God is. As Jake says in the episode, “You may not be artistic, but that is entirely beside the point. Everyone is creative as an image bearer, the Imago Dei.” And while OSNC follows Jake’s developing artistic career, the stories throughout take you on an unexpected spiritual journey and what it looks like to co-create with God. As Jake was given permission to tell his story in a raw and vulnerable fashion in the form of this book by his editor, Jake encourages listeners to “tell your story of how God has been faithful thus far.”Pre-Order ‘Old Soul, New Creation: Experiencing God Through a Life of Art and Faith’ | Releasing April 15! https://www.amazon.com/dp/1400246849FREE GIFTS when you pre-order Jake’s book including a digital download of the book’s 1st chapter (annotated by Jake in his beautiful handwriting), a digital download of the artwork, ‘The Maker’s Prayer’ from the book and an exclusive discount to the JW gallery! https://www.artistandmasterpenman.com/oldsoulnewcreationJake’s Online Art Gallery: JakeWeidmann.comEveryday Heirloom Fine Jewelry Collection: https://everydayheirloomco.comFollow Jake and Hannah on Instagram @jakeweidmann @hannahweidmann @madetolastpodcast @everydayheirloom
When Jake and Hannah designed and created their wedding bands, they never thought they’d be designing jewelry for the world over. From the overflow of their work together in the realm of fine art, Jake and Hannah started another creative business in the form of their fine jewelry collection, Everyday Heirloom Co., in 2018. The business had an unsure start and Hannah outright rejected the idea when Jake first presented it to her. Now 7 years later, they can’t imagine life without it. The business brought Jake and Hannah closer than ever as the two of them learned to elevate and honor one another’s gifting. Through EH, the couple remind women of their inherent identity as God’s Beloved, creating tangible reminders of God’s faithfulness for their everyday life. “Do not despise these small beginnings for the Lord rejoices to see the work begin.” Zechariah 4:10Click PLAY and be encouraged that God wastes nothing.

While we may be full time artists, we're convinced that the greatest work of art we'll ever create is our life together. Join us as we talk about the stories behind the stories you may have seen on social media; what it's likes being married to your co-worker; the honest dose of what it's really like raising kids in the studio and how we are living out counter cultural careers of slow art in an world of an Amazon Prime mentality.
