the limits of creativity

here’s a second video to add to the discussion of creativity. these guys suggest creativity has limits and needs to be handled with care in the church. a few quotes that stood out:

• “Creativity can easily distract from content.”
• “We’re not trying to win people to creativity. We’re trying to win people to the gospel.”
• “This should bring great peace to the soul of a worship leader. This should release you from the pressure to be more creative than you were last week. You role is to find your way again and again and again to the content of the gospel.”

the lingering question: is it possible to exaggerate the role of creativity in churches?
