description: A guide to understanding the connection between reawakening our creativity and becoming the spiritually complete people we were created to be. The Way of the Spirit is for both practicing and aspiring artists who want to understand the connection between their talents and their spiritual growth. Working alone or in small groups, readers are guided through nine weeks of exploring ways to begin to fully develop their God-given artistic talents. The course centers on the belief that developing one's artistic gifts will bring the artist, as co-creator, into closer union with the Great Creator through the inspiration of the Holy Spirit. The reader begins to connect artistic and spiritual development and to see the practice of one's talents as a key to becoming a more complete person. Using the latest research on creativity, testimonies by Christian artists and what the Bible has to say on the subject of artists and the arts, The Way of the Spirit leads both experienced and initiate artists along the path of creative and spiritual awakening. In nine easy-to-manage lessons that can be completed either alone or in a small group, the artist within begins to emerge while the connection between creative inspiration and spiritual awakening becomes apparent. Essential reading for all Christians who have been waiting to hear the good news that artists are meant to be artists; engaging in creative activity can be the key to a closer relationship between the artist and God the Creator. The Way of the Spirit has the quiet power to change lives.
