Faith + Work Discipleship for Artists

Helping you live out your YES to God in your art life

Faith + work discipleship for Kingdom artists building creative careers, businesses, and practices in the marketplace.

Artists
Organizations

You said yes to God. You’re building a creative life in His kingdom.

What does it mean to build from that yes and walk it out every day?

How does being in relationship with God transform the way you live as an artist?
Not just what you believe.
Not just what you make.
But how you think, how you move, how you carry yourself, how you make decisions, how you create.

That’s what we’re here to find out, together.

The Kingdom Artist Institute is a dedicated space where career-minded artists discover what it means to think, build, and walk out their creative pursuits the Kingdom way.


a different kind of space

This isn’t about finding ways to help
your faith and art work together.

The faith and art conversation tends to spend a lot of time on this tension: the push and pull between your faith life and your art life, the guilt, the toggling, the feeling that these two parts of you don’t quite fit. And KAI absolutely addresses those things.

But that’s not the focus here.

Being a kingdom artist is a way of living. KAI exists to form and equip you for that way of living. The tensions get addressed along the way. But the goal is bigger than helping you resolve this tension. KAI is here to equip you to walk fully as the artist God created you to be.

for artists and the communities that serve them

Individual artists

You’re a career-minded artist. You know there’s more to this than ideas and inspiration. You want the practical, concrete how. How does who I am in God actually change the way I show up, make decisions, and build?

With KAI, you can explore this question at your own pace. Start with KAI’s resources. When you’re ready for something more focused and personal, 1:1 mentorship gives you a dedicated space to work through specific questions in your creative life and career.

Organizations + Communities

You lead a church, an arts organization, a university, a creative collective. You want more for your artists than ideas or inspiration. You want a formation experience that brings their faith off the page and into how they actually live, work, and create.

KAI serves you through speaking engagements, workshops, and cohorts. Tailored to your community and what they need.

Choreographer / Creator of KAI

Hi! I’m Marlita

I’ve served God in dance within and beyond the church for over three decades. In that time I’ve learned firsthand what it looks like to build a creative life where faith and art aren’t in conflict but working together as one living reality. That’s what KAI is built around. And it’s what I’m here to help you discover for yourself.
