Adorning the Dark — Conversations on Creative Community

Creativity can come in many forms, and we are each given different talents and abilities with which we can “adorn the dark with the light of Christ” – but this happens best in the company of others. This book-study aims to provide a platform for discussion around the cultivation of creativity within community.

"I've been a WH podrishioner for several years now and I can't tell you how much it has changed my life. I came across these podcasts at a time when I was in an extremely unhealthy/abusive situation, and these teachings were immensely influential to me maintaining my faith and sanity. THANK YOU for showing me what a Jesus-looking God is like and what it means to follow Him. Many, many blessings to all of you!"
