Creativity is a powerful tool when placed within a consistent plan. These three avenues will help guide you through the creative process from the beginning of an idea to the execution.
Forming and Leading
Your Creative Team
Creativity never happens without collaboration, especially in the church context. Fortunately, we have people around us, both on our staff and within the church community, who are just waiting to contribute in huge ways. If you are currently largely leading and creating alone, we will talk about how to get out of that grind and begin building a team that will expand your creativity and impact while saving you from crashing and burning. We will talk about the perspectives that are important to have in the room…and which need to remain outside.
How do you bring your ideas
to life over and over again.
The challenge for most of us is not to pull off that one big idea once in awhile. It is to regularly create engaging environments that go after the heart of individuals and create space for God to move. How do you find your team’s unique rhythm? What process need to be in place in order for weekends to be effective…every seven days? How do find that last 10% to take normal ideas to the next level? Our conversations, both through the coaching sessions and together as a cohort, will confront these issues and provide pathways towards consistency. In the end, we will learn how to MAKE THINGS HAPPEN.
A Real Programming process that
allows for spontaneous inspiration.
We have learned the hard way that if we are not intentional and disciplined with our planning, the weekly demands of our worship experience will crush our creativity and implode our innovation. Curiously, planning allows for the brilliant last minute idea to actually emerge and gives space for it to be implemented. Our entire job as a Creative team is to support, prepare or land the message so people can understand and respond.
