Your Hands, I Need Your Hands

Again. I see organizations spending bank on the premise that gear equals creativity.
That’s bull.
Lots of hands, some paint, black light, a projector.
Bam.
I’m going to find a way to do this at Buckhead.
Don’t stop creating.

RAIN IT DOWN
I couldn't agree more.
I think creativity exists in everyone, but apparently frugality doesn't. Some people spend soooooo much to bring an idea to life, while someone else can do the same for much less or nothing!
For me this is often why the simplicity is often the way to my best (and most cost effective) creativity.
And I agree again, I might have to steal this one for my church.
I wonder what they had to pay those obviously professional hand puppet people?
Creativity and ideas can be cheap. Execution rarely is. Especially when time is stretched thin or on a quick turn around.
I love it when the people who work at those churches with the expensive equipment say it is not needed to the people who don't have it. How about you pass some of your stuff down to other churches then.
I actually agree with you though, you do not have to have money to have creativity really show
Because if I pass it to you then you would be me. And then you would have "Randy's" yelling at you to give them what you have.
And that is no fun.
I worked at a church in a gym for 10 years.
The most creative place I've ever worked.
Actually I agreed with you, money is not needed for creativity. I was actually not "yelling" as you said either. WAS I TALKING LIKE THIS?
Some books that have come out recently all say the same thing. You do not need all the hi-tech equipment to have a good service. That is totally true, you do not. All these people saying it come from the Grangers, Northpoint, the HUGE Texas churches and all of these people have the nice equipment. If it is not needed then why did you (as in the church, not you specifically) buy all of the equipment?
BTW, I think that if a church can afford the lights, the nice DigiDesign board, HD cameras and projectors, then go for it. Especially when a church like yours is also still doing kingdom growing stuff, missional stuff.
What!!! That was one of the most incredible things I've seen in a long time! Huge kudos to those guys.
Limited resources is the breeding ground of creativity!! Maybe, just maybe, the Lord is limiting the church in financial resources so that we would continue to pull creativity out of our hearts and the deepest places. I think the church is just beginning to tap into the creative heart of the Father
I know this is not quit on topic, but I love SIA, her music is so dope!
that's hot.

give it 30 secs to start properly…
Well done.
Yeah, very nice!
Yes! I LOVE Sia! Many of her videos are very simple and tres creative. She's an inspiration to me. Thanks for posting!
that's cool
We definitely don't need the money heavy items do create and inspire. Sometimes you just need the right tool to do a job. Real creativity often happens when we can't afford that tool and decide to charge ahead and improvise with what we've got.
The hard part – charging ahead.
awesomeness!
