FINE ARTS MINISTRIES

It is the desire of the Fine Arts and Visual Arts ministries to fulfill two goals.

  • First, we want to create an atmosphere where artists in any discipline can use their craft to glorify God.
  • Second, we want to use the gifts that God has given us to help other people experience Him.

We believe that the arts allow people to embrace God in ways that words alone cannot explain or express. Many of the ministries are open to anyone without the need for an audition. We offer classes and direction for people who are interested in exploring their talents and how they can be used to glorify God. We pray for each other and spur one another on toward excellence in performance and in living. We believe that creativity is a gift from God, the Master Creator. We are open to new ideas and ministries and are often waiting for a point person to lead new groups of people.

If you are interested in any of the ministries or are interested in starting a new ministry, or if you have some ideas about existing ministries, please contact Mark Young at 480.945.6346 or MarkYoung@fbcscottsdale.org.
