Overview
What does it take to build a church that truly values creativity—not just on paper, but in practice? In this candid and deeply insightful conversation, we sit down with Grant and Courtney Beaudry, the creative force behind Galerie Du Saint, a new church plant in the heart of Paris. Grant is a designer and musician while Courtney brings over a decade of fashion industry experience and creative direction. We talk about everything from creative callings and the myth of "safe" church aesthetics, to perfectionism, professional experience, and how to actually empower artists in a ministry context.
