| Servanthood.
Perhaps the most important aspect of Jesus Christ's
entire ministry can be summed up in one word…servant.
As artists in the Church, our ministry is to serve.
Although there is a performance aspect to what we do,
this is not the place to show off our monster chops
or make a name for ourselves. It is a place where we
learn to "serve for the greater good" while
using our talents.
Excellence.
We believe God is honored with excellence -—
our best. With that in mind, we will make every effort
to place you in a role that is consistent with your
talent and the needs of the church. However, as a matter
of philosophy, we are looking for skilled artists. That
does not mean world-class talent or perfection, so don't
let that scare you. Our view is that excellence (verses
mediocrity) inspires others and honors Jesus Christ.
Community.
Relationships matter. More important than a well executed
song or drama are the people involved. Our desire is
develop meaningful relationships with one another as
we minister. Maintaining unity among our team is a high
priority for us because we've found that ministry flourishes
within an environment of honesty and genuine relationships.
Character.
Being a creative artist in the church is a highly visible
ministry. What we do, what we say, how we live in and
outside of the church building reflects on our ministry,
and ultimately upon Christ. Character drives credibility.
Our desire is to serve the Church from a foundation
of integrity and Christian character.
Creative.
The Church, Christ’s expression of Himself on
earth, should be anything but boring! As artists, we
have the awesome privilege of creatively expressing
the good news of the Gospel. Our goal is to raise the
bar across the creative spectrum while avoiding cheesy
gimmicks or showmanship.
Teachable.
We’re looking for people with fresh ideas yet
who are willing to be taught. If you’re a team
player and looking for an opportunity to serve the Lord
within a team atmosphere, you’ve come to the right
place!
Commitment.
Creative arts ministries are typically the most time
demanding ministries in churches. It takes more than
talent, character, or desire -— it takes
a time commitment.
