From the beginning of time, humans have been endowed with creative gifts eager to reflect the creativity of our Creator God. In this concise and insightful guide to Christian creativity, Creativity with the Creator by Maxine Harrison, begins by highlighting biblical examples of God’s creative nature. From designing the flowers in the field, to imparting  architectural skills to Bezalel in Exodus 31, and most profoundly, creating humanity, God reveals Himself as the ultimate Creator.  The idea that every person has a small amount of God’s creativity engraved inside is truly awe-inspiring.

Drawing from her own childhood experiences, Harrison shares how God plants seeds along the way to encourage our creativity and places His blessing on those talents to be used for His glory.
