Download or read book The Humble Creative written by Matthew Niermann and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2021-03-04 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Open any other book on creativity, and you will hear the clichéd rallying cries of current creative culture: Be True to Yourself! Find Your Voice! Express Your Authentic Self! This book is different. This book will not tell you to “Be true to yourself,” but will implore you to “Humble yourself.” This book will not repeat the slogan, “Find your Voice,” but will ask you to consider how your moral weaknesses are inhibiting your creativity. Examining the current creative culture, The Humble Creative argues that creativity can easily become disordered by vices that Christianity has long understood, but most have forgotten; vices such as vainglory, envy, sloth, anger, lust of the eyes, greed, and pride. The Humble Creative integrates the long-held Christian understanding of moral vice with creativity, providing an accessible exploration of individual vices and their role in disordering creativity—ultimately offering exercises for moral and creative formation. Written in an accessible way, this book explores the stories of several individuals whose creativity have become disordered by vice, introducing the reader to the often overlooked relationship between the moral character of the creative and the successful pursuit of flourishing creativity.

Download or read book The Powerful Kingdom Book 2 The Revealed Kingdom 3 Book Series written by Mark Loretz and published by BookRix. This book was released on 2024-01-06 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I have found sowing seed, thinking it was good ground and hoping for a return is not what the Kingdom is, but pressing in, waiting, listening and growing in my relationship with the Holy Spirit and being obedient to His prompting has revealed the reality of The Kingdom, which is within me. Within these pages, Mark has managed to coerce the reader to delve deeper into their relationship with the Father to find the lustrous pearl, and compel you, the purchaser to sell everything to possess it. The writings expose the gap between the child-like faith illustration Jesus used of the Kingdom of heaven belonging to children, to the reality in adulthood of what it entails and the availability as Jesus taught in His Prayer. The challenge has been to understand again that it is in seeking first His Kingdom and His Righteousness, which reveals the ultimate Pearl of Great Worth – Jesus Christ and His Kingdom.
Download or read book Creative Fusion written by Charity Bowman Webb and published by Whitaker House. This book was released on 2021-10-19 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the beginning of time, God endowed people with His creative power, intending for them to rule and steward over all the earth. But Satan—once heaven’s most beautiful and creative angel—convinced Adam and Eve that the fruit from the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil would give them a power that they already had. The moment that they ate the fruit, they handed their authority over to Satan. Oppression ruled the world; instead of the luminosity of heaven’s pattern advancing through the planet, creeping darkness took hold. The enemy knows the highly effective powers of creativity all too well. Despite being cut off from its divine origin, he uses it with vigor to effectively communicate his counterfeit and repetitive message across the world. Creative Fusion follows the interlinking tabernacle pattern of God laid out from Genesis through Revelation to provide Christians with the answers to reclaim the Lord’s creative energy and His DNA that He placed within us. Author Charity Bowman-Webb wants readers to discover the magnificent wisdom in Scripture that will help them influence every area of society and harvest souls for God’s kingdom.
Download or read book Living in the Creative Realm written by Francis Myles and published by . This book was released on 2022-08-24 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I have finally written this book after numerous requests and encouragement from my dear and precious husband, Francis Myles. I told God I am only writing this book if it will glorify Him and activate His children to discover what He has already deposited in them. I believe what Francis said, "If something God put in His people is activated, they will change." In my travel to different nations, I find that most people struggle to make ends meet. Some of them are highly frustrated because they have not discovered the many facets of treasures that God has put in them that they have been carrying all their lives. Therefore, God has burdened me to see His children uncover their treasures. I desire anyone who comes across this book to experience a rebirth in their creativity and be inspired to ignite their passion to create. Someone once said, "we were born creative and grow up uncreative!" I certainly refuse to be a statistic of this statement. I always believe that destiny is by choice, not chance; we are constantly presented with choices. I pray we choose destiny choices that can extend His Kingdom. Creativity can be learned, so we can choose to spend a good percentage of our time being creative.

Download or read book Creative People Must Be Stopped written by David A Owens and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2011-10-07 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A framework for overcoming the six types of innovation killers Everybody wants innovation—or do they? Creative People Must Be Stopped shows how individuals and organizations sabotage their own best intentions to encourage "outside the box" thinking. It shows that the antidote to this self-defeating behavior is to identify which of the six major types of constraints are hindering innovation: individual, group, organizational, industry-wide, societal, or technological. Once innovators and other leaders understand exactly which constraints are working against them and how to overcome them, they can create conditions that foster innovation instead of stopping it in its tracks. The author's model of constraints on innovation integrates insights from the vast literature on innovation with his own observations of hundreds of organizations. The book is filled with assessments, tools, and real-world examples. The author's research has been featured in the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, London Guardian and San Jose Mercury News, as well as on Fox News and on NPR's Marketplace Includes illustrative examples from leading organizations Offers a practical guide for bringing new ideas to fruition even within a previously rigid organizational culture This book gives people in organizations the conceptual framework and practical information they need to innovate successfully.
Download or read book Creativity Inc The Expanded Edition written by Ed Catmull and published by Random House. This book was released on 2014-04-08 with total page 367 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The co-founder and longtime president of Pixar updates and expands his 2014 New York Times bestseller on creative leadership, reflecting on the management principles that built Pixar’s singularly successful culture, and on all he learned during the past nine years that allowed Pixar to retain its creative culture while continuing to evolve. “Might be the most thoughtful management book ever.”—Fast Company For nearly thirty years, Pixar has dominated the world of animation, producing such beloved films as the Toy Story trilogy, Finding Nemo, The Incredibles, Up, and WALL-E, which have gone on to set box-office records and garner eighteen Academy Awards. The joyous storytelling, the inventive plots, the emotional authenticity: In some ways, Pixar movies are an object lesson in what creativity really is. Here, Catmull reveals the ideals and techniques that have made Pixar so widely admired—and so profitable. As a young man, Ed Catmull had a dream: to make the first computer-animated movie. He nurtured that dream as a Ph.D. student, and then forged a partnership with George Lucas that led, indirectly, to his founding Pixar with Steve Jobs and John Lasseter in 1986. Nine years later, Toy Story was released, changing animation forever. The essential ingredient in that movie’s success—and in the twenty-five movies that followed—was the unique environment that Catmull and his colleagues built at Pixar, based on philosophies that protect the creative process and defy convention, such as: • Give a good idea to a mediocre team and they will screw it up. But give a mediocre idea to a great team and they will either fix it or come up with something better. • It’s not the manager’s job to prevent risks. It’s the manager’s job to make it safe for others to take them. • The cost of preventing errors is often far greater than the cost of fixing them. • A company’s communication structure should not mirror its organizational structure. Everybody should be able to talk to anybody. Creativity, Inc. has been significantly expanded to illuminate the continuing development of the unique culture at Pixar. It features a new introduction, two entirely new chapters, four new chapter postscripts, and changes and updates throughout. Pursuing excellence isn’t a one-off assignment but an ongoing, day-in, day-out, full-time job. And Creativity, Inc. explores how it is done.

Download or read book Creativity and Captivity written by Uday Balasundaram and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2021-12-02 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ultimately, what really does it mean to be creative? How can we see ourselves as participating in the creativity of God for mission? All people are creative. Sadly, however, for many, creativity is stifled and remains stunted due to several reasons--social, economic, political, cultural, and even spiritual. This study explores how ICMs--indigenous cosmopolitan musicians--negotiate their creativity amid the liminal spaces they occupy as they share in the creativity of God for mission through their music. But what exactly does it mean to share in the creativity of God for mission? Contrary to popular notion, ICMs evidence that creativity is not merely innovation; it is not a psychological metric for measuring human potential; it is certainly not the "icing on the cake" reserved for a few so-called creatives or artists. Rather, "theological creativity" is participation in the creatio Dei; it is theologically prior to mission. As a missiological framework, creatio Dei is understood here in terms of creative being, creative construction (design), and creative performance. Hopefully, this book can help clarify and expand our understanding of what it means to be truly creative and, thereby, with the help of the Creator, put into practice principles of theological creativity as we share in the creativity of God in the world, with others.
