Scribbling In The Sand

Singer, songwriter, and student of Scripture Michael Card is known for the depth of his lyrics and the artistry of his music. But far more significant than the songs he has penned is the source of his inspiration–the creativity embodied in Jesus Christ, the incarnate Word of God.

In this book Card explores the biblical foundations of true Christian creativity. Whether we think of ourselves as creative or not, all of us are made in the image of our Creator God, and thus creativity is a vital expression of our discipleship. With Jesus as his model, Card shows how understanding God’s creative imagination leads to a lifestyle of humility, obedience, and servanthood. And he invites us to follow God’s creative call through worship and community.

In Jesus, God has spoken to us in a word we can understand. When we respond with worshipful creativity, our own scribbles in the sand can become opportunities for divine revelation.
