As beings made in the image of God—the ultimate Creator—we are called to reflect His creativity in our own work. Design is not merely an aesthetic pursuit; it is a powerful force that shapes culture, influences values, and directs the future. As Christian designers, we should approach our work with thoughtfulness and intentionality, using our skills to communicate and inspire in a way that honors our Creator.
