Reigniting full expression unto the King
FALL/WINTER 2023 APPLICATION COMING SOON!
EXPRESS the School of Worship Arts was birthed from a word from the Lord—"Reinvigorate full expression in the body of Christ."
We believe now is the time to gather the creatives together to express our love and adoration for God (Mark 12:30). We're confident the Lord will bring the right musicians, singers, dancers, poets, writers, visual artists and intercessors to join each semester.
"Express" means to press out. Our prayer is that this school will help draw out your full expression so that we would boldly press out glory unto His name.
He is worthy of our full expression!

-
Creatives who have a hunger for God and have a foundation in their creative craft.
The focus is on wholeheartedly expressing your adoration unto your Maker in Spirit and in truth, not on skill or talent. However, this is not a school for beginners.
-
We will steward the time as the Spirit leads and keep things simple. We will break bread at the table, worship the Lord and create together. Each group (musicians/singers, writers/poets, dancers, visual artists and intercessors) will have a leader in their craft. Our heart is to:
CREATE SPACE
We are intentionally creating a space for you to come to encounter the Holy Spirit and freely express yourself unto Him through your creative giftings within the context of community.
GIVE PERMISSION
As creatives who have experienced and are learning the glory and freedom of full expression, we want to give you permission to go all out in your unique expression unto the Lord. You are the only one who can release the expression God has given YOU to release into the earth for His name.
PROVIDE GUIDANCE
Each area leader will provide guidance to lead you deeper in your craft with the Lord.
ENCOURAGE
We want to build you up and push you to go all out in your love for God—releasing heaven on earth and advancing the Kingdom of God. This is a place to gather to be sent.

-
An intercessor is someone who agrees with what God will and wants to do.
All born-again believers in Christ are intercessors. Jesus stands between us and the Father. And we stand between heaven and earth. We are the conduit the Lord uses to reveal Himself to the world.
Each area of creative expression is intercession as it releases the beauty of God. And the world sees God through this Spirit-led expression.
The group of intercessors for Express are the ones whose hearts burn for prayer and bringing everything back to the holy Word of God. They will unite the room in prayer as they release the heart of God and declare the greater reality.

“To grant to those who mourn in Zion the following: To give them a turban instead of dust [on their heads, a sign of mourning], The oil of joy instead of mourning, The garment [expressive] of praise instead of a disheartened spirit. So they will be called the trees of righteousness [strong and magnificent, distinguished for integrity, justice, and right standing with God], The planting of the Lord, that He may be glorified.”
