Welcome!

Welcome to the Creative Expressions small group website!

So, maybe you've come to this website to find out what this small group is all about and if you should come check it out or not, so I'll start by saying:

Anyone interested in the creative arts with a desire for a community that can be a catalyst for creativity while deeply studying the topic of spirit, soul, and body is welcome and invited to check us out!

There is a variety of topics within each topic of spirit, soul, and body that we will be covering over the course of the semester from health and nutrition to personality types and spiritual gifting to warfare and worship -just to name a few. We'll also do things as a community that incorporate the arts -dependent on the interests of each of you that attend. Here are some possibilities: a photography shoot, ice skating, a free Kennedy Center performance, a viewing and dialogue about the behind the scenes creative process of a movie, and perhaps even a dance class together! I want it to be a place for us to grow and be challenged spiritually and creatively while finding friendship, encouragement and inspiration to walk and become the person and community God created us to be - spirit, soul and body. :)

A Quote

"It is the creative potential itself in human beings that is the image of God."
~ Mary Daly

Check back weekly for announcements, inspirational verses, quotes, and topics in preparation for each Wednesday night!

Still interested?

If your curiosity is still peaked then perhaps the following questions and thoughts might stir in you like they do in me.

"And God created man in His own image, in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them." ~Genesis 1:27

What does "created in His image" mean?

"The Word of God is living and active sharper than any two-edged sword able to divide between soul and spirit, joint and marrow..." ~ Hebrews 4:12

What is the difference between spirit and soul?

John 1:14 says "...and the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, glory as of the only begotten from the Father full of grace and truth."

What is this verse talking about?

What gifts has God given you to build His Body and bring Him Glory?

We serve a creative God. He is the source of all true creativity and He desires to move through us in powerful ways.

Do you have the courage to follow where He leads?

"... the people who know their God will display strength and take action." ~ Daniel 11:32b
