How do we become who we were created to be?
In this episode of Live Creatively, I’m chatting with my friend Emily Cummins and we discuss the answer to this incredibly important question. Emily is the Communications Pastor of a church in Ocala, Florida, Church of Hope, and the host of Becoming Me TV.
In 2012, Emily tattooed a little eight-letter word on her wrist that has changed the entire trajectory of her life. To Emily “Becoming” is more than just a phrase or pretty idea or token of inspiration. Becoming is a way of life, a journey we’re all traveling on. Embracing her becoming journey has not only empowered others to embrace their’s as well, but it has stirred up her life’s passion: to partner with people, to cheer them on, to equip them on the journey of becoming who God made them to be.
Emily shares what it really looks like to intentionally pursue becoming who we were created to be and what that process has looked like for her along her journey! We also break down one of my favorite passages of scripture from Galatians that is SO close to my heart and has even served as the very inspiration behind this podcast.
Listen in as Emily and I chat about:
- Emily’s tattoo of the word “becoming” in 2012
- How she embodies the journey of becoming the woman God created her to be
- How to intentionally pursue becoming who God created us to be
- Breaking down Galatians 6:4-5 MSG
- How to not hold yourself back from the life you are meant to be living
- Embracing the life you were meant to live and empowering others to do the same!
“I think to live creatively is to be you. There is literally no other you in the entire world that has the privilege of being you. To live creatively is being fully you, not a carbon copy of someone else or living out a story you think you are supposed to be living. When you live out who God created you to be, that’s living creatively.”

Emily is passionate about storytelling, good cups of coffee, and jamming to country music. She’s a University of Florida and College of Central Florida grad. She’s a PK who stayed in ministry. And she loves it. She is also the Online Campus Pastor of a dynamic church in Ocala, Florida, Church of Hope. Watching people find their voice and share their story is why Emily gets out of bed every day. And most importantly, she is passionately pursuing becoming the woman God made her to be.
