Episode 56: Lisa Kidd & Emma Noble
Today, I’m excited to introduce you to not just one, but two guests! Lisa Kidd and Emma Noble join me for Episode 56. Lisa is the Founder and Director of Arts Evangelica, training students in the arts as they learn to draw near to God. Emma is one of her students who just recently graduated from Lisa’ program and is currently a student at Belhaven University.
