The Launch Pad
Glad you made your way here! Welcome to our Creative Team ministry, and though this upcoming year will look a little bit different, we will strive to be effective and glorify the Lord in all that we do. One of the main goals of our flyers is to attract and invite people to our events so that they may hear the Word of God! As Paul aptly states, "How will they believe in Him whom they have not heard?" (Romans 10:14b), even though we are not bringing the gospel directly with the flyers or graphics we make, we are inviting them and giving them opportunities to hear the good news! This means the designs that you craft and create should invite people and generate excitement for the events, and this ultimately means putting forth your excellent work before the Lord.
What is the purpose of creativity?
Why did God create mankind with the ability to create and to express ideas through creating things? It is because God delights in man creating or designing things for the glory of God! He did not create man to be a robot or a lifeless machine, but rather a being that can create and exercise the talents and abilities given to him. Consider the beauty of the earth, remember the beautiful vistas you’ve seen facing the oceans, or the wondrous colors of the uniquely painted sunrises and sunsets in the skies, or even the magnificent, mighty mountains overlooking the lands of the earth. Though it is hard to describe with mere words, all these things should point us in one direction: to the living God who designed, created, and sustains all. The beauty and artistry of the Lord in the world we see around us should astound us and cause us as believers to praise God!
