WHY GOOD DESIGN MATTERS
Theology
THEOLOGY
Creative Being
THEOLOGY
➤ God is a Creative Being ➤ So God created man in his own image, in the image of God
he created him; male and female he created them. (Gen. 1:27)
➤ Image Bearers are Creative ➤ Everyone is Creative
➤ If you are God, your work is to create out of nothing. If you are not God, but like God — that is, if you are human — your work is to take what God has made and shape it and use it to make him look great. (Don't Waste Your Life -John Piper)
Know Your Role
IN OUR WORSHIP
➤ The Creatives Role
The Lord said to Moses, 2 “See, I have called by name Bezalel the son of Uri, son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah, 3 and I have filled him with the Spirit of God, with ability and intelligence, with knowledge and all craftsmanship, 4 to devise artistic designs, to work in gold, silver, and bronze, 5 in cutting stones for setting, and in carving wood, to work in every craft. - Exodus 31:1-5
Impact

For the Gospel
COMMUNICATING THE GOSPEL
Good Design Matters
THE GOSPEL
➤ A Stumbling Block and Foolishness
FOR SINCE, IN GOD’S WISDOM, THE WORLD DID NOT KNOW GOD THROUGH WISDOM, GOD WAS PLEASED TO SAVE THOSE WHO BELIEVE THROUGH THE FOOLISHNESS OF WHAT IS PREACHED. FOR THE JEWS ASK FOR SIGNS AND THE GREEKS SEEK WISDOM, BUT WE PREACH CHRIST CRUCIFIED, A STUMBLING BLOCK TO THE JEWS AND FOOLISHNESS TO THE GENTILES. - 1 CORINTHIANS 1:21-23
