Ryan Sharp, Michael Thompson, and Nate Click from Evergreen Christian Community in Olympia, WA brings us these great grids of dots and spots.

They also wanted floods so […]

Seth Switzer from Cornerstone Baptist Church in Middletown, NY brings us this creative use of paper plates. They were looking for a quick, low budget design for their sermon series “Diluted”.

Greg Culbertson from Gethsemane Church in Evansville, IN brings us this cool PVC stage design. 88 – 10′ 1/2″ PVC pipe. ( 3/4″ would work a little better in a larger room.) 2×4’s painted black… repurposed from previous set. Metal 2×4’s painted black would be ideal because they don’t warp. Either will be fine. Velcro 1 or 2″ […]
