Collaborative Easter Project

When it comes to art, it has been a busy few months both inside and out of the studio.  I run workshops on a monthly basis that explore the link between art and faith and over the last couple of sessions we used part of our time to organise and create work for a large scale collaborative project which we opened to members of our church as a creative way to celebrate Easter.  As we entered Lent we came up with 40 words and phrases which express something of who Jesus is and what was accomplished when he died on the cross and rose again three days later.  Each word or phrase was then allocated to different individuals so that unique artworks could be created centred around  each chosen phrase.  The result was that the original list of 40 words and phrases was translated into a group of 40 images.

Above are some images of artwork used to illustrate the message at our most recent youth led service at church.  We were looking at the subject of Fear and how it can hold us back from going on adventures with God and can stop us from trusting him with our whole hearts and every area of our lives.

A few of weeks ago I got speaking to a really lovely couple who had recently started out on a new adventure with God.  It hadn't been easy...God had asked them to quit a high paid, successful job and start a new business.  It was really nice watching them work at this new job, you could see that they were greatly enjoying themselves and it was obviously the right thing for them to be doing.  But it was when talking to one of them about taking this step of faith, that I really started thinking hard....

Do you ever look at a situation and think, "God, where are you in all of this?"  

At church we have been going through a sermon series titled 'Major lessons from minor guys' where we have had a look at some of the minor prophets of the bible.  Last Sunday we looked at Habakkuk and found that he was struggling to see God in the chaos around him.  As it was the youth lead service, I worked with some of the young people at church and we did a sort of 'modern day twist' on the book of Habakkuk and looked at how we can apply what we learn from him today...

Sunday school:  The great commission

This week at church I worked with the younger half of the Sunday school and we looked at 'The Great Commission'.  This is the part of the bible where Jesus sent his disciples out into the world, telling them to spread the news of the gospel to the nations.
The Great Commission
Then the eleven disciples left for Galilee, going to the mountain where Jesus had told them to go.  When they saw him, they worshiped him - but some of them still doubted!  Jesus came and told his disciples, "I have been given complete authority in heaven and on earth.  Therefore, go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.  Teach these new disciples to obey all the commands I have given you.  And be sure of this:  I am with you always, even to the end of the age."
 - Matthew 28:16-20
