Interesting thoughts overall that require more digesting. Here is something for discussion. I have trouble, I think, with the author's comment that "our humanness" gets in the way of creative flow. Many Christians apparently hold this view, which seems to imply either that a) my will and God's will are naturally opposed to one another, so if I am experiencing trouble then I am obstructing God's will with my own; or b) that human-ness is bad in some way, which I believe is more of a gnostic view (body, matter, humanity bad) than an orthodox Christian view (body, matter, humanity created and redeemed by God). Also, aren't faithful Christians subject to the same struggles as the rest of the world, and therefore possibly subject to writer's block as well? God is the Creator of everything, and I don't want to imply that He is not involved in inspiring artists, possibly even unbelieving artists (if every heart is in His hands). But I think we can over-simplify and see EVERYTHING as a spiritual issue and a sin issue, and perhaps that is not always the case... My two cents. Any other thoughts?
