Encouraging creatives to fearlessly follow CHRIST and lead others to Him.
Regular Meetings
Gatherings will be held every other Sunday at 1:00 PM after services. (Elementary Room)

Each meeting will include a topical discussion covering a wide range of themes and scripture passages that apply to living wisely as Christian artists in the world. We will also hold space for prayer and support during each meeting. We are open to suggestions, so let the group leadership know what you'd like to discuss or learn about.

Humility
- Gifts come from God. Praise Him for it.
- Hold each other and ourselves accountable. Accept responsibility for our actions and our community.
- Don’t operate from a place of pride.
- Hebrews 4:16 - “Let us then approach God’s throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need.”
Courage
- Audience of one—for the Lord. The industry is our giant, but we serve a mighty God.
- Don’t be afraid to acknowledge that our gifts come from God. We must declare it to the world!
- Have the courage to share our vulnerabilities with God and others.
- Joshua 10:25 - Joshua said to them, “Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged. Be strong and courageous. This is what the Lord will do to all the enemies you are going to fight.”
Community
- Matthew 18:20 - “ For where two or three gather in my name, there am I with them.”
- Ecclesiastes 4:12 - “Though one may be overpowered, two can defend themselves. A cord of three strands is not quickly broken.”

- I Corinthians 12:27 - “Now you are the body of Christ, and each one of you is a part of it.”
Imagination
- God is the source of all imagination.
- Nothing is too big for God.
- Bring emotion and desires to God. It’s okay to feel.
- Ephesians 3:20 - “Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us...”
- “We are born to create, and we can’t help it...because God, the great Creator, is in us.” — Ernest Holmes
