Creativity includes pushing the boundaries, growth, taking risks, and not settling for what you know and do well. If you have this without the others, you become inaccessible. If you lack this, you become boring and ignorable.

"Creativity is allowing yourself to make mistakes. Art is knowing which ones to keep."

Scott Adams

Excellence involves honing your craft, artistic integrity, and relevance (the art of using what is timely to illuminate what is timeless). If you have this without the others, you become shiny and veneered. If you lack this, no one will listen to you for very long...you become endurable.

"Be a yardstick of quality. Some people aren't used to an environment where excellence is expected." Steve Jobs

Vulnerability expresses brokenness, guts, passion, transparency, and boasting in weakness (as Paul does in 2 Corinthians 12:9). If you have this without the others, it's just messy. If you lack this, you certainly don't inspire us to open our hearts...you become unapproachable.

Vulnerability: the art of being uncalculated, the willingness to look foolish, the courage to say "This is me." @aplusk

Here's to having all three as we pursue our calling in creating spaces where people can meet with God!
