Workshop: ex deo - creation out of the Being of God
Tuesday March 1st, 2011 - Tuesday March 29th, 2011
Information:
If can’t go to church and, for just a moment, be given transcendence…then I can’t see why anyone should go. Just a brief moment of transcendence causes you to come out of church a changed person.”- Garrison Keiler


arts leaders-drama directors-worship pastors-brainstormers

Communicating creatively is no longer an option. Art and artists can no longer be on the fringe. We have the best stories and we must learn to tell them better, or no one will listen. If you are part of a creative team or are leading the effort to try to break up the songs-announcements-sermon status quo of the church service….this is for you!
