Aurora Light Painters

One of the most amazing things I have ever seen.

Not sure what to do with this beyond sharing something amazing set to a great song by Owl City.

Art Ministry Resource from My Friends At Interlinc

The other day I mentioned a lesson I was writing for the youth ministry resource Interlinc. I thought I’d give you a little better idea what they do. Now as you know, I am a huge fan of using the visual arts as a tool for ministry. Interlinc does the same thing with really cool music and every once in a while visual art and music collide. Such is the case with Circleslide’s video for the Song You Are Everything.

The band commissioned Artist Randy Elrod to do a time lapse painting video based on the song and turned it into their music video. As you can see they did a really great job.

My friends at Interlinc then got a youth worker to write a Bible lesson using the Circleslide video as a jumping off point. You can view that lesson by clicking here. As you can see this is a pretty useful tool for ministry to youth, especially those with a creative bent.

Now just to be sure I am not misrepresenting, Interlinc’s lessons do not all include painting and visual arts. Music is their thing, but it is still a great resource for working with creatives, especially their Music Video Loop which comes free four times a year with your subscription. The video loop just seems to click with visual learners.

I’ve written for Interlinc for years on a voluntary basis because I love this resource. This isn’t an ad. It’s just a recommendation of a resource that might be really useful to you.

By the way, I’ll be painting live at the Interlinc Youth Leaders Reception area at Creation East, Thursday, Friday and Saturday June 28-30, 2012. If you’re at Creation, be sure to look me up.
