The Kudzu Vine Cafe

Several years ago, our church declared a month long celebration of creativity. We called it Christ and Creativity month. I had remembered reading Edith Schaeffer’s comment that because of our position in Christ, Christians should creative because we want to imitate God. She talked about doing simple things like arranging flowers and simple decorations in one’s home. Following that pattern, we invited church members to bring examples of their creativity. There were all kinds of examples ranging from woodwork, to sowing, to photography.
I hope The Kudzu Vine Cafe can be something like our Christ and Creativity month. I originally wanted to do something for my daughter, Jessica Bryan, so that we could allow her music to be heard on the internet. But I thought, why stop there? In our church we have several talented people. Why not a place where they can share their abilities? And why stop with music, some may want to write stories or display photography or other art forms. Only time will tell if that can be done.
