a few weeks ago i blogged about wordle.net. i was certain i could find some great way to put that little piece of fun to good use. our next sermon series was perfect…more. i couldn’t actually use wordle to set it up since it doesn’t work so well with just one word. but it was really easy to execute. we ordered 4 custum gobos. i only got 2 of them installed for the first week. i just installed the other 2.
just when i start to think that the time i spend reading blogs is a waste… my time is redeemed back to me on projects like this. we were really down to the wire on artwork for this series. i got it knocked out in record time. what inspires you when you are under the gun?
free the creative chaos…
this is awesome. we’re working on putting something together that is close to this.

love it! I am addicted to wordle (thanks to jim drake) and have been noodling how to work it into a worship element. I like your idea.
To answer your question, I saerch webites, youtube, videos, tv shows, listen to dc101 on the radio. I lurke, blurke, link and surf. I input as much information as possible. I call it searching for snippets. I simply look around until God expoldes in my brain. Then I do a happy dance…

Awesome idea. I just used my first wordle in worship on Wednesday. Sometimes being under the gun makes it work. Especially if you don’t have a team of people taking on the ideation that your service may need.
I do alot of what Dorothy does…look for great ideas to shape for our context. I’m in a more traditional church, so the creative ideas are perhaps smaller scale than changing set and stage.
That is really awesome! Why I didn’t connect the “more” graphic with Wordle I don’t know. Somehow I missed it. And you’re right, it does fit very well. More mores. You and your gifts constantly amaze me!…seriously.
See ya Sunday!:)

Cool–I love wordle.
We’re taking the pastor’s sermons and doing a wordle each week on his teaching series in Proverbs. We’re printing them to 23.5×42 inch paper on our large scale printer and adhering them to thin insulation board–we’ll put them all up here a few weeks as we end the series and let people walk through a gallery of the words.
