What does "being filled with the Spirit" even mean? The first person to be filled with the Spirit was an artist. It's important to know what it means to be filled by the Holy Spirit and also important to know what it doesn't mean. This is God Himself, empowering us to join Him in His mission…all in the things we make.

What does it mean to be created in God's image? The first way God is described in the Bible is as a Creator. And this has massive implications for the things we make.
