What Does It Mean to be a Creative Arts Director?

We all know how much of an impact we make in the mission and ministry of our churches. If you had to say in three sentences or less what the most important aspects of your role are, what would they be?

I believe that the role of the creative arts director is to effectively display the vision of the church leadership through the creative arts. I also believe that leading a team of artistic volunteers is huge, and also training someone else to be able to do what i do.

Anything else you think i'm missing or disagree with?

Welcome!!

So amidst all my toils of trying to find some kind of forum where Creative Arts Directors can discuss their passions, share ideas, successes, and failures, I eventually hit my necessary frustration level and decided to start one up myself.

I am very excited about this. As we all know we are not creatively inspired and stimulated by just sitting alone and closing out the outside world. We need to build a community where ideas are flowing, minds are inspired, and the kingdom of God is impacted through Creative Arts ministries.

Have a new topic? start it.
Have a question? ask it.
Have a great new idea? spill it.
See a great source of inspiration somewhere else? post it.

I look forward to learning from others who are on the same mission that I am, and being able to impact your ministry as well.
