About God Loves Art

Does any of this sound familiar?

“I want to make art, but I feel guilty.”

“I want to make a difference with my art, but I don’t know where to start.”

“I want freedom in my art and in my relationship with God.”

If so, God Loves Art is for you!

We believe creativity is a gift — and every artist has a part to play in God’s story.
Art can be both worship and service.
And when artists are loved, encouraged, and empowered by Holy Spirit, they bring beauty and renewal wherever they go.

Our community is built on grace, excellence, and belonging — a place where artists can grow in faith and craft, and rediscover the joy of creating with God.

Imagine:

  • Creating freely every day without guilt.
  • A stranger you’ve never met thanking you for connecting them to God through art.
  • Saying goodbye to paralysis, doubt, perfectionism, and Impostor Syndrome.
  • Finding hope, peace, transformation, and purpose in art.  

God Loves Art is a grassroots global community that equips and empowers artists to minister through the arts — bringing beauty, hope, and healing wherever they are.

I’m Jessie Nilo, and I started God Loves Art in 2015 by creating an online school where I poured into artists, equipping and mobilizing them in art and faith, creatively and spiritually. Hundreds of artists have discovered their creativity truly matters to God. In 2022, Amy Hui took Foundations Art Ministry Course from her home in Texas. After graduating, she and her family moved to Boise, Idaho, where she began working full-time to expand the vision and bring her creative energy to our online community.

Whether you’re a painter, dancer, designer, poet, or creative in-between, this is where your art and your faith can grow together.

You don’t need a degree, a gallery show, or a certain number of followers to call yourself an artist. If you create—if you express, explore, and bring beauty into the world—you are an artist.

Don’t wait for permission. Give yourself the same freedom you would give someone else. Unlearn negative habits, and speak life into your artistic journey, starting today.
