New For The 2022 National Fine Arts Festival 8

We would like to encourage you to discover, develop, and deploy your ministry gifts! We know that God has called you to winthe world for Him and we believe you can do that through telling your story, sharing your gifts, reaching out to your friends,and building the Church!Fine Arts is a discipleship tool and an opportunity to be involved in ministry. It goes way beyond the five- to seven-minutepresentation time at a couple of festivals—it is more about living your life to the fullest the way Jesus intended you to. He hasgifted you and has His hand on your life.We pray that as you spend time practicing, being coached, and allowing yourself to be mentored in a skill and as a follower ofJesus, He will speak to you and use you in ways you never expected! Ephesians 2:10 says, "For we are God’s masterpiece. Hehas created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago." He has put gifts and abilitiesin your life so that you can do the good things He created you for."Seek his will in all you do, and he will show you which path to take" (Proverbs 3:6). It is important we draw close enough toGod and commit to obey Him daily, use the gifts He has given us to reach others, and follow Him with our whole heart. He willguide and direct our lives!Lift Jesus up and people will be drawn to Him! Give Him all the glory and praise.Fine Arts FestivalAll Scripture quotations, unless otherwise indicated, are taken from the Holy Bible, New Living Translation, copyright 1996, 2004, 2015 by Tyndale House Foundation.
