In Creativity with the Creator, Maxine Harrison offers an insightful guide to Christian creativity, drawing from biblical examples of God’s creative nature. From the creation of the world to the architectural skills given to Bezalel, Harrison explores how we are all endowed with God’s creativity

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.
