Faith, Music, Hope
A little about us…
We’re Keven and DeAnna Newsome—a husband-and-wife team passionate about worship and the creative arts. For over 25 years, our journey has taken us through church leadership, music ministry, and creative ventures, all rooted in our
faith and love for God. Keven is a guitarist, pastor, writer, and digital ministry specialist, while DeAnna is a gifted vocalist, digital designer, and vocal coach.
Our Ministry
These Creative Things is a new chapter in our journey, rekindling the stage-performing aspect of the early years of our ministry. After stepping back to focus on raising our family, we’re excited to return, now joined
by our talented children, to continue sharing hope, faith, and worship through the creative arts.
