Charity Bowman Webb has written a wonderful book on creative ministry here. This book is powerful and biblical. One of the great things that she did explores in this book is God's pattern in creating the tabernacle. She calls it "The Combination" which is "Blueprints [Ideas from Heaven] + Wisdom + Creativity + Spirit + Existing skill/ability + More skill/ability added by God, joined with Character, Obedience and Perseverance." I think I instinctively knew about this, given my many years exploring creative ministry, but she gave it a strong expression here that really helped me to formulate a better understanding. She deals a lot with the prophetic aspects of the arts in the church, while simultaneously calling artists to greater accountability to God and the Word. This is a fantastic, challenging book I highly recommend to anyone wanting to combine their creative gifts with ministry or for church leaders who want to embrace the arts in their churches. A great read.

If you want to gain an understanding of how we are all 'creative' because we are made in the image of the Creator God then read this book. Charity gives a solid biblical background to creativity and how it should be part of every Christian's lifestyle. She shows that Creativity is much more that being 'arty' it is about finding out what God has put in you and creating out of that. It can be anything including, to name but a few: dance, drama, writing, photography, designing business plans, creating computer games, etc. etc. It is about listening to the God and creating out of how he guides us, to impact the world around us, through our life and work. I am not sure why there is no picture linked to this book but it is beautiful and colourful. It is by Susan Card and is called 'Destiny Ablaze'. If you want to stretched in you understanding of who you are in God then try this book.
