We believe creative gifts are entrusted by God to be stewarded with purpose, excellence, and humility — for His Kingdom and His glory
Worship Arts is The Salvation Army’s music and creative arts team within Australia. We are a passionate team with a heart for seeing
creative arts continually lead people to encounters with Jesus
We will work to encourage and support faith communities, to actively enable participation in the arts to become a vehicle through which individuals and local communities may encounter faith and God. Therefore, we seek to 'encourage, support, challenge, resource and develop' individuals and faith communities in their use of creative arts.
By strengthening our worship culture, we believe our people will deepen their personal relationship with Jesus and expand their understanding of worship. By pursuing and practising authentic worship, we believe God will increase our desire for his presence and transform us through our continued responses to him.
The church has an opportunity to use the arts- a common language with the secular world - to connect with non-believers. By engaging the community in arts activities, we can build authentic relationships, care for people and be ready for opportunities to share about our faith in Jesus.
We believe that encouraging our creative artists to surrender their artistic gifts to God invokes a deeper connection to Him. Journeying with Jesus as they engage their craft and hone their skill produces maturity in faith as well as practical experience. Additionally, the creative works produced by this rich relationship with Jesus become the fruit of their gift, providing opportunities for others to be enriched in turn and to encounter Christ.
