Ok, I know this is the second conference I’ve talked about this week but hear me out. If you’re a creative working or volunteering at a church you’ll want to know about a conference on November 10-11 called Dirt. Weird name for a conference? Yeah, I thought so too until I read this on their site:

The Dirt Conference will help reveal the creativity and ability your team already possesses.  Because being creative means truly working with what you have. Humans came from dirt.  God chose dirt as the ultimate creative substance.  He created life with it. Our goal is to teach you to do the same.

Dirt.  Something from nothing.

We’ll help reveal the creativity and ability your team already possesses.  Because being creative means truly working with what you have.

Get it?

I love the promo video they put together – a mashup of compression effects featuring soundbites from Dino Rizzo, Randy Bezet, Joe Champion, Greg Surratt, Kellen Coldiron, Kristin Becnel, Daniel Gonzales, John Siebeling, Stovall Weems, Rob Ketterling and Tarik Stewart (psst…if you’re into video editing you’ll want to follow Dirt on Twitter, especially by September 14th…just sayin).

What a great opportunity to “look under the hood” of amazing churches like LifeChurch, Church of the Highlands, Gateway Church, Seacoast Church and NewSpring (all churches that will be participating). I’m going to be at Dirt on November 10-11 at New Life Church and I look forward to meeting all you fell0w-creatives there!
