{"product_id":"9780997162592","title":"Welcome to the Shivoo!: Creatives Mimicking the Creator","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWHY DO CREATIVES STRUGGLE TO FIND BELONGING? If the human impulse to create is a reflection of the Creator's image shaped in us, then why does a sense of value seem elusive? \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cem\u003eMaybe it’s because creatives don’t quite understand our origin\u003c\/em\u003e. In the beginning of time on earth, God created. Should this matter? Come, tickle your fancy at the Shivoo!\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe best parties and mind-bending games don’t just happen. A successful shivoo takes a lot of strategy, some heart, a list of resources, and a guest list. But, are there actual rules to this game?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is easy enough to get lost in the winding, bumpy, intersecting paths of life without having the benefit of a central axis, but giving an axis to a creative is particularly important. We need that hub upon which to spin because we have voices that are apt to be used in public. So, who do we mimic? Who are our mentors? Does a hub for creativity even exist?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSublimely depicted, BARTNICK builds a biblical and realistic theology for human creativity from traditional cornerstones and from the voice of the Creator. The chapters of this book are meant to empower the creatives who are often used or marginalized while being left out of the theological discussion. \u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003eThis is a party and a prayer for the creatives in town!\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the beginning, God revealed Himself in His announcements of everything. He did this with The Word. His creative joy was to mingle with human beings in relationship, almost as though a writer had personally entered His own plot and became a character in the story.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThrough His artistic activity in nature, and through specific forms of His communication, the Logos welcomed human beings and expressed Himself as their place of belonging. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Creator’s ingenuity is expressed in the ever-living logos, which is thriving in analytical, imaginative thought. Radiant in nature, this same Ingenuity also justly and mercifully expressed His love for society in His law. His Spirit makes all the spoken and written Word, all communication that is of Him, to live.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhether you consider yourself a creative, or whether you are attached to one through bloodline or through other ties or links, these ten game rules will inspire goodwill and good work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen you understand the rules to a game set placed on a table before you, you’ll begin to step into the strategy with the playing pieces. In this game, there can be many winners because each person is being summoned up an individual path to the promised land.\u003cstrong\u003e \u003cem\u003eNevertheless, the stakes are high.\u003c\/em\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Capture Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49787417657584,"sku":"9780997162592","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780997162592","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
