"Every good and perfect gift..."
The arts are among the greatest influences of any culture. Where there is man, there is culture and there is creativity and art. Without a doubt, man’s desire to create is a natural response of being created in the image of God-the Creator. In the beginning God gave the mandate to Adam and Eve to subdue the earth as creative stewards, and indeed, since that time, whether for better or worse, man has designed his dwellings, cities and nations with creative pursuits.

Interview with Event Manager

Event Managers create the platform on which artists perform - literally and figuratively. What does it take to become an event manager? What skills and experience do you need? I asked my friend, Julie West, Dean of College of the Arts, to share a little of her perspective. These are my questions and her comments:

How long have you been an event manager and what lead you into this ministry?

I started doing small events at school for my children, in church and through running the family business, where we had to organize a wide variety of events from competitions, youth events, social outings, fundraisers, interclub events, worship celebrations, outreaches, training opportunities and promotion with local media. In the late 80’s I felt called by the Lord to co found and manage Perth Christian Choir and Orchestra and told the Lord I was the wrong person as I didn’t even know the instruments. He told me that is why He has chosen me because I didn’t know what I was doing and all the glory would go to Him. That has been foundational in all I do. Listening to Him and trusting Him to show me the way so He is glorified.

It’s time to consider …

A blank canvas, an empty silence … stillness. A holy moment, without movement, only light. Quiet. Waiting. Things fall away; what is left? Me, stripped me. Him, Holy God.

There are times in the Church’s history when, in seeking after this kind of moment, all else is thrown out. Nothing can stand in that space. It is essential to be in this place to gain perspective. We must have it. Once the space is cleared, the sounds and movement are still – and we have seen Him with our own eyes… Peace.

There are times in the Church’s history when ...

   

In our desire to be with Him in the power of this kind of moment, there is a temptation to determine that this is the authentic avenue to our God; therefore, one must shun all else. The stripping we have perceived as cleansing, holy, wonderful – in our longing to continue in this place, we –denominations, churches, individuals -- long to translate that into our daily life, and so turn to our surroundings and began stripping it away. The danger is losing, limiting, even denying the sighting of Him and of ourselves in countless other ways.

David's Key
All of us know at least a little about King David from the Bible, remembering scattered bits and pieces about his life and exploits. We recall his spontaneous enlistment into Saul’s army to confront the formidable foe Goliath. We remember him as a shepherd boy, called in from the fields by Samuel the prophet who, in front of David’s snubbed siblings, anointed him as the future king of Israel.

David’s story has many facets we could explore: as youngest and possibly illegitimate son; the singer and psalmist; a friend “closer than a brother”; his days as an outcast and fugitive; as king of Israel and commander-in-chief; and his unsavory side as an adulterer and murderer. This is how we remember and memorialize David ben Jesse.
