creativity
Don't you just love creativity? One of the things we work hard to do here at Foothills Community Church is to be creative. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.
Here's what you can be sure of when you see something done in a creative way: 1) It took alot of hard work. You don't accidentally fall into creativity. If creativity was easy, then every one would do it. 2) It took longer to pull off than you may think. Creativity takes time. 3) It probably wasn't the first idea. Usually the creative idea or elements we use were not the first ones we came up with. When you are with other creative people, there is a very cool interaction that happens that is hard to put into words, but generally one idea spawns another.
One other thought. Sometimes the most creative things are the simplest ones. It doesn't always take some sort of full-blown production to be the most impactful. Sometimes saying things SLIGHTLY different is all you need.
Here is a great example of what I'm talking about: (I would love to have this guy in our creative team meetings!)
