C3 Conference

Last month I had the privilege of attending the C3 Conference at Fellowship Church in Grapevine, TX. There was a fantastic lineup of speakers and the times of music and worship were great as always. However, the best session for me was the Friday afternoon breakout where I had the opportunity to listen to and interact with Fellowship Creative, the worship leadership area of Fellowship Church. Below are some of the notes I took during that session:

- Creatives see boundaries as parameters, not limitations.

- Creativity begins with preparation.

- Creativity is best produced with order and discipline, not chaos.

- Creatives were created to exclaim God's greatness!


"4 D's" to the creative process

1. Dream

2. Define

3. Design

4. Develop


Keys For The Stage

1. Diversity - using people from various generations, backgrounds, and cultures

2. Energy

3. Flow - no stops, especially in a music set / keep everything moving forward without distractions

4. Next Generation - utilize students in all facets of the worship ministry / help grow their talent, ability, and leadership potential


- Always be in the process of growing your team and the leaders within. To achieve the greatest success in ministry you must have a qualified team surrounding you.
