This is Us: Creativity
Description
In this episode of the Village Church's sermon podcast, Pastor Eric kicks off a new series called This is Us with a sermon on creativity and how it is essential to being a formed person in Christ. He explores how truth without imagination is dead; and how imagination, without a foundation of truth, is flimsy and lacks a real grasp on meaning or reality. He talks about how creativity develops attentiveness; fosters both comfort and disruption within the community; helps renew our minds; and cultivates deeper spiritual formation.
Pastors Eric, Mark, Susan, Daniel, and other Village leaders open the Scriptures as the witness to God’s kingdom breaking into our lives. Scripture gives us more than abstract ideas. It is the Word of God, given to form us, confront us, comfort us, and teach us how to follow Jesus.
Each episode invites us to listen and respond. We are learning to understand the Bible more faithfully; we are also learning how to live as God’s renewed people.
Week by week, our pastors and leaders talk about the practices of Christian discipleship, including prayer, fasting, generosity, Scripture memory, worship, and life together. These practices belong to a whole life formed around Jesus.
The podcast also speaks to ordinary places where faith is lived; our relationships, finances, habits, struggles, joys, and decisions. The gospel speaks to what we believe. It also teaches us how to live in the present age as people who belong to the kingdom of God.
