Recently we did away with the series model for Newsong and moved to building a Newsong Culture. This year, Newsong will be be focusing on a core vision of “Unleashing Beauty” which we will be officially launching on October 4 and with the Unleashing Beauty Conference on October 10.

“Unleashing Beauty” is justice, loving the outsider and radical sacrifice.

In Isaiah 58, the word “glory” in Hebrew incorporates this understanding of beauty. The Bible says that if you do these things (i.e., do justice, welcome the poor into your home, sacrifice radically not just out of excess but out of your own need), then the Beauty of God will be Unleashed on the Earth. Have you ever met someone who did such an amazing act of generosity that it took your breath away? It’s revolutionary!

Who is Unleashing Beauty for?

This event is designed for church, business, non-profit leaders to feel empowered to change their local, global, and online communities in the midst of this economic crisis.

This one-day leadership event is open to any leader in the OC/LA area and those who desire to join us online at: http://global.newsong.net (Yes, it will be streamed live!).

What are the hopes for Unleashing Beauty?

* Refresh, inspire, and connect leaders during these turbulent times.
* Create opportunities for leaders to re-invent and innovate their leadership.
* Develop compassion/justice opportunities to become tangible expressions of God’s love for the world.
* Provide opportunities for leaders that are jobless to network with each other.

Dave Gibbons of Newsong and Erwin McManus of Mosaic will be there as well as many others who are leading the way in Unleashing Beauty. You will get to meet and engage with those that are already living out Isaiah 58.

There is no excuse for not being there. It is free and will be streaming live online.

Newsong has recently opened up a new site in Santa Ana. It’s called 511: Santa Ana’s Creative Space. It used to be a old mechanics garage, which later was renovated into a property development company, which now is the space where Artists from the community come and gather. Awesome.

This Monday, the Artisans gathering will be held there. I truly believe that this site will be a launching ground for a movement of the Artisans. The Artisans will be called and become the prophets of this generation.

Check out Urban Arts Outreach who are the Artisan Warriors of Santa Ana.

Urban Arts Outreach – A diverse multi-church fellowship of artists practicing the elements of Hip-hop Culture (Breaking, Deejaying, Emceeing, and Writing) in the worship and purposes of our savior, Jesus Christ.

What Are Our Goals?
Uplift local and global urban art communities by promoting reconciliation, encouraging and empowering servant leaders, help local means assist the poor, care for people’s health, and educate the next generation. We exist to bridge the current gap between culture and church, art and purpose–to speak hope to lives no matter who they are or where they’re from.
