Trust the Creativity within You-Then Get Out of Its Way

"[This] is the invitation of the inner creative spirit: you are created to create. The creative potential within you is one of the things that makes you 'in the image and likeness of God.' Whether your medium be music, watercolors, clay, gardening, woodworking, writing, cooking, dance or voice, the Creator has gifted you with creativity. Your gift in return is to use it."
-from the Conclusion

This inspiring guide shows you how to cultivate your creative spirit, particularly in the second half of life, as a way to encourage personal growth, enrich your spiritual life and deepen your communion with God.

Each chapter provides questions for reflection to help you identify your creative energy, overcome your insecurities, and connect with your chosen method of expression. Practical exercises at the end of each chapter help you awaken your creative spirit within.

Whether you're a novice or expert; young adult, middle age or golden age; you will be challenged by this invigorating call to set free your creative potential.
