PARTNERSHIPS & RECLAIMING
MUSIC AND THE ARTS
+==================================+



Increasingly there is a growing movement in many segments of the Body of Christ across the globe to intentionally partner together in order to function more effectively and in unity in order to see God’s purposes accomplished on the earth today.

As in the book of Nehemiah, if we want to see the ‘walls’ rebuilt and the Body of Christ repenting, renewed, revived, restored and rebuilt, we need to realize our need to work together and to serve each other in love. We need to each do our part where we’re at, working ‘side by side’ as they did in the rebuilding of the wall – valuing and affirming unity in diversity, and as we work together there is a spiritual synergy that takes place as the power of the Holy Spirit flows through loving relationships/partnerships, producing much more than any one group could do on their own.

We applaud the efforts of those in the Body of Christ both present and past who have grasped an understanding of God's intended purpose for the arts. Yet, we also recognize that in various eras and places the arts have gone into disrepair and ruin and like the wall in Jerusalem, need to be rebuilt.

NOW IS THE TIME for the biblical foundations to be re-established and to see the walls rebuilt! In order to see this happen, we will need to partner together!

One example of what this could potentially look like is the following (which is in its early developmental stages). Perhaps this is similar to visions that some of you also have on your hearts. If this IS something that rings true with your heart and you wish to talk further, please contact Grace at: gcwac@hotmail.com

GREAT COMMISSION WORSHIP & ARTS CENTER – developing in Greater Vancouver, BC, Canada

Vision Statement:
By the power and leading of the Holy Spirit, the Great Commission Worship & Arts Center will effectively partner with churches, schools, missions and ministries in order to train, equip and release biblically established artists and musicians into their roles in seeing cities, nations and ethnic groups discipled into becoming whole-hearted worshippers of God.

Some articles to help encourage/develop your thinking about partnerships for God’s purposes:


NEHEMIAH: REBUILDING THE WALLS - by Ray C. Stedman
Nehemiah: A Prophetic Parable for Apostolic Renewal
Mission Frontiers: PARTNERSHIPS

TOGETHER we can move forward in that which God has called us to in these days in order to see Jesus worshipped throughout the nations through indigenous biblical expressions of music and the arts!
