Frustrated by years of neglecting her creativity, Colleen Warren finally vowed in a New Year’s resolution to do something creative every day, a decision that literally transformed her life. This book tells her story and reveals the ideas, mindsets, habits, and practices she adopted that enabled that change.
The First Verb offers the encouraging message that creativity is every person’s possession, by virtue of being created in the image of a creative God. Readers will be inspired by the book’s celebration of God’s own creative attributes, spiritually strengthened by its theological affirmation of creativity, motivated by exploring the benefits of creativity and the qualities of creative people, and energized by engaging in activities that enlarge creativity.
