God’s gifts of imagination and creativity, intentionally nurtured, greatly transform the human experience, and enable us to be all that God has created us to be.”

“From the first page of the Introduction, Emma Boa- Durgammah presents Creativity in Us as a sacred invitation to live as co-creators with God. Being creative is a choice not reserved solely for those in the performing arts. No, creativity is for everyone regardless of vocation. Readers will quickly experience the author as a caring friend and confidant whose insights come from personal experience, purposeful study, and intentional collaboration. After reading each chapter, you will find yourself saying, ‘I can do this!’ Read the entire book and you will know that creativity is a divine call not to be ignored.”
— Dr. Kwasi Kena, Associate Professor of Ethnic and Multicultural Ministries, Wesley Seminary; Musician; Composer; Bible Story Performer
“Over two decades, I have watched Emma grow from a woman who simply loved and participated in the creative arts, to a Christ-centered leader who leverages creativity in every endeavor. As an entrepreneur, scholar, author, artist, and mentor, Emma shows us how harnessing our God-given creativity creates a life where possibilities are limitless.
Through Emma’s book, I was called to rediscover the creativity that I feared had died inside of me. I left a secure, prestigious, and well-paying job to embrace my own God-given creative gifts as an entrepreneur. I have repeatedly turned to Emma’s book for tactical and spiritual guidance as I navigate a new chapter. Every time I read it, I leave inspired and uplifted.
This book is a must-read for all who feel, ‘there has to be more.’ What a gift and blessing to have Emma as our guide as we use creativity to reach our highest potential.”

WHAT WAS THE INSPIRATION BEHIND THE BOOK?
My personal experiences of having creativity take a back seat to others’ expectations, their dismissal of my gifts and passions, grief, and challenges in life, ultimately motivated me to write the book Creativity in Us: Unleash the Power of GOD-Given Creativity.
The most important driving factor for writing my book is my relationship with CHRIST who helped me to reflect on my life without self-condemnation or criticism and understand that the creativity He gave me was an instrumental gift designed to live a fulfilled life and overcome challenges, including periods of stagnancy when being held back or dismissed. It is my deepest desire for more to come to know Him at a deeper level or for the first time and experience the freedom, empowerment, and unconditional love He provides, especially through GOD-Given creativity.
Readers will learn how to get unstuck from feeling unmotivated, uninspired, bored and transition to being excited, fueled, driven, and an inspiration for others. Readers who partake in this journey and use the tools provided in the book will have an opportunity to discover the layers of unique and creative gifts GOD gave them. Readers will be emboldened to unapologetically and with urgency share their gifts with others as the LORD leads.
