Episode Summary

Creativity without conviction falls flat. In this episode, Mikel challenges you to stop trend-chasing and start creating from a place of purpose and holy urgency.

Episode Notes

We often limit creativity to designers or artists—but every one of us is creating something daily. In this powerful Daily Fox Fuel, Mikel reminds you that your creativity is more than a skill—it’s a weapon. But it only hits its mark when it’s charged with conviction. Drawing from Jeremiah 20:9, he unpacks the idea of "holy urgency" and encourages you to stop chasing the next thing and lean into the thing you can’t not make. This episode will ignite a fire in your spirit to build with purpose, speak with boldness, and create like your assignment matters—because it does.

Episode Transcription

We often assume creativity belongs to artists, but the truth is—we’re all creating every day. Whether you’re leading, parenting, building, or writing, you are shaping something with your hands and words. And your creativity? It’s not just a skill. It’s a weapon.

But it only carries power when it’s fueled by conviction—not comparison, not compromise, not trend-chasing.

Jeremiah 20:9 says, “His word is in my heart like a fire… I cannot hold it in.” That’s holy urgency. It’s the feeling that you have to build, speak, or move. That’s where the best things come from—the things you can’t not make.

So make it. Build like it matters—because it does. Stop stalling and start moving. Let conviction lead the way.
