CREATIVE CHAOS--WORSHIP AND WORDLE


For those faithful readers of this blog ( I think there are 3 or 4) I apologize for the "one more" push for Wordle, but I've been captivated by this program this week.

I captured all of these words during our Pastor's teaching last week in Proverbs. I put them into Wordle and it came out with this graphic. So, I've printed it up in 24X36 poster size on our large printer and mounted it to some thin insulation board from Lowes (the very thin blue kind), and we're going to display these each week after the services as a reminder to our people about the teachings that they've heard. By the end of the series we should have a gallery full of these and maybe on the last day we'll remind people to walk through the Wisdom of Proverbs to keep the things they've learned fresh in their minds. Just an idea I had.

Hi Jim,

As you know I love Wordle too, but what I particularly liked about this idea is your practical application of it, displaying word pictures to the congregation to reinforce the teaching. Genius!
