Creativity takes on different forms, looks, functions and interactions. I truly believe God created each one of us to be creative in our own ways.
Yesterday I asked on twitter “what is your favorite blog post that you have written?” A few people allowed themselves to be brave enough to share theirs, so I wanted to share them with you.
KATIE wrote an amazing post on what to do with the “space between’s” in our life. It is so inspiring.
Amy left a moving post about “giving up hope”. I loved this line: “Some times to embrace the better things God wants to give us we have to give up hope.”
Wes talked about how God creates moments that we are not aware of that end up impacting our lives.
Danny talked about what happens when people try to Big League.
Ashley talked about the power of expectation. She claims to have only written 2 blogs. If that is true it is a travesty.
Jim penned a moving post to his daughter. Dad’s will have a hard time reading this one. 🙂
Brian teaches about want in this very funny post about his son wanting orange juice and him just wanting a few more minutes of sleep.
Heather is just WITTY. Wow.
Brian uncovers the curse of writing.
Carroll asks if we are promoting profanity.
And Miranda will move you with this post on being still. Amazing.
Creating is awesome. Sharing our creations with others is even more awesome.
So lets do it again! Leave a comment with a link to your favorite blog post. Sharing is caring.

One of my favorite posts over on The Worship Community (I’m the managing editor) is a post I put together after some great discussion on our forums. Some good thoughts and great discussion about “performance and worship” continued!

I have a few favorites that I’ve written since they touch on different aspects on my life it’s hard to choose one. They’re my favorite because the response could’ve been totally opposite of my intention:

Sorry I totally broke the rules here.
Sarah you are a good rule breaker. There is no condemnation in Christ.
Tracee just updated on twitter that this post on failure is her fave….

Here’s mine on how we can make mistakes when we try to do the right thing, but fail because we ate not in the right place.

Thank you so much for sharing my post!
Great idea, Stephen! I’m going to enjoy going through these tonight!
The question “What is Awe?” has been very important to me in the last few months, and this has resonated with some fellow congregants:

What a good idea!
This one is my favorite because it’s a personal story that clearly shows how the Lord never forgets about each one of us…

What’s yours Stephen?
Angela, I am not really sure. :/ I guess I should figure that out. I don’t really think I have written it yet.
Thanks so much! What a great idea. Let’s do this again sometime. 😉
Stephen, I can’t post one of these without the other. These are not only my top posts and my favorite, but were also the most difficult to write. They are both about the ups and downs in my relationship with my dad. I’ll let the posts do the speaking though…..I’ve found that there is freedom in writing this stuff!

My fav is probably one I wrote recently about my little sister’s faith in the midst of having a rare disease that makes all of her hair fall out.

Some thoughts about demolition, optimism and looking to the future instead of clinging to the past.
