Creativity has been around from the very beginning. Genesis 1:1 tells us that the heavens and earth as we know them are a result of creativity: God’s creativity. We also know from the Genesis account that God created man in His own image (Genesis 1:27).
It’s amazing to know that we have a God that just by the power of His words spoke the universe and mankind into existence! It’s clear from Scripture that creativity coupled with the power of God is a force like no other. As Ed Young says, “You have been created in the image of your creative Creator.” You are a “Creative.” Your various gifts and talents have been given to you by God for a purpose—so you can reflect and communicate the timeless message of Christ and His love for the world. That is your purpose. That is your calling. Fellowship Creative—this collection of creatives—is for anyone who is passionate about using their creativity to reflect and communicate Christ’s love and plan for the world.
Whether in the areas of music, video, art, design, writing, photography, video editing, marketing or production, Fellowship Creative is a place for creative thinkers and artists to build relationships, grow in creativity, and develop resources to build the local Church and expand the Kingdom of God.
Whether you are from Miami or from one of our many campuses here in the Dallas/Fort Worth area, I can’t wait to see what God is going to do through this collection! Our hope is that this House, this team, will inspire, equip and empower you to be all that God has created you to be as a “Creative.” Imagine a global team of creatives empowered by the Creator, united with one cause to change the world with the message of Christ.

Stories are meant to be told. Great stories do not correlate to the strength of the plot, but heavily rely on the way the story is communicated. That is our job! We are the story tellers! Through FC creative stories, we will dive into the art of story telling through the venues of video, writing, web, and marketing.
If you are interested in video editing, please contact Landon Cox. landon.cox@fellowshipchurch.com
