If you move to Brooklyn, there’s quite a few churches with creative-types. Check out Trinity Grace Church - TGC Park Slope, TGC Williamsburg.
Redemption Brooklyn Heights... all very reminiscent of Chicago churches like Park Community Church.

Praying for you young 🐠! Look into churches - see if they have weekly small groups/bible studies. You’ll find your place - remember God has a beautiful plan for you!

Coming from where to where?

I can tell you that Hillsong has a big community of creatives. Stop by the Manhattan campus.

NYC is actually an amazing place because there are so many churches. For every denomination and tradition, you’ll find multiple congregations - you just have to commit in order to find community. Have you found anything yet?

Those of you that were on Agency and switched over are you producing projects at the same level? Is there operational support? Can you push back on the bad ideas? Are there leaders who ‘get it’?

Additional Posts in Christians in Advertising

I have been using this emoji 🙏 and saying to so many colleagues and clients “I’ll pray for you” with such warm and genuine receipt that I think sometimes God uses hopelessness to open people’s hearts to Him. I’ve spoken about my faith to work people more than I ever have in my 20 year career. In such a dark time, what a light prayer can be for our coworkers and clients.

If anyone needs a prayer, put your needs on this post. I wanna pray for you.

Hi! So glad to find this bowl!
Today, I was looking through other bowls and see comments like: “Anyone tired of chasing money?” “Is it just me or as I get older do you realize how little awards and accolades mean?” And I’m reminded of how grateful I am to have my hope in something other than my work. I hope my coworkers see that in me, too. That I work hard but advertising is not what fulfills me.

His heart is always good toward us! Just a little encouragement. This thread rocks ❤️
