Creativity

Creativity

I spoke at emanate on creativity. If you were there and want copies of the notes including the godly beliefs you declared, download them below. If you missed it and want to get rid of things that keep you from being creative, watch the message below.

UGB 1 - I'm not creative

GB: I am creative because I was born creative. I have been created in the image of a creator. As a child of God, filled with the Spirit of God, I am just like my daddy, creator God.

 

UGB 2 - I'm not original

GB: The work I do is inspired by God. As I partner with the favor of God on my life I will produce increasingly inspiring, incredible and creative work. Lord I ask you to establish the work of my hands for me.

 

UGB 3 - This won't take me anywhere

GB: As I give myself to the diligent practice of my creative work, I encounter the joy of God. I choose not to despise small beginnings for I know that as I practice I will grow in skill. As I grow in skill, I will grow in influence. As I grow in influence I step into my destiny.

Helpful Links

I showed some parts of the (excellent) Everything is a Remix videos (which itself has recently been remixed) and also recommended you check out seanwes.com for inspiration. Additionally I suggested you listen to the interview we did with Chris McClarney earlier this year. 

Bonus Video

The very wonderful Jessie Early (who is very much a creative genius) tweeted a link to this fantastic video which pretty much sums up my third point, but in a much better way. Essential viewing for everyone.

An Intro to Honor

An Intro to Honor

I had the privilege of sharing at Grace Center this morning. I chose to share on the topic of honor. If you missed the message you can catch up by watching the video above. It was difficult to condense our week long teaching into one message, but I hope I got the foundation down! If you'd like to hear the rest of the message, head over to our honor teaching page.

How To Make Your Brain Happy

How To Make Your Brain Happy

Wonderful little video about Will Shortz, the crossword puzzle editor for the New York Times and ping pong. I was surprised to hear the two go well together.

Murder Meets Mercy

Murder Meets Mercy

I saw this video over at the NYT website. So unbearably sad and yet at the same time incredibly powerful. These relatives speak to the killer that murdered their loved ones and extend mercy, forgiveness and attempt to lead him to Jesus Christ.

You Are What You Believe

You Are What You Believe

I spoke this morning at Grace Center on the power of what we think. You can watch the message above if you missed it or if you'd like a copy of the five most common ungodly beliefs (and their antidotes) to read over for the next 30 days, we got that for you too (scroll down to the bottom of this page).
