Dear Pastor. We are artists.

Dear Pastor,

We’re artists. We get offended easily, get depressed way too often, and often show up late.

See, us artists tend to be more sensitive than others – and that’s why we can communicate deep thoughts through emotional mediums. Like dance. Or Drama. Or Music. Or Film. Or images like painting, photographs, or sculptures. But that emotional sensitivity comes with a little bit of baggage.

While most other  people communicate and invoke thoughts in the observer (teachers do that very well), we communicate feelings. We feel. That makes us a little weird – and we know that. We have a huge desire to use our expression of  feeling to help the communication of your thinking (your sermon). With some clear communication and a guided chance, we may surprise you. We may be able to spark interest in your message at the start, or bring a creative closing to touch people’s hearts so they’ll remember your message better.

We know we’re weird. In spite our weirdness, can you still give us a chance? Give us a goal and let us know how we can help you.

Sincerely,

The Artists in your church
