Sometimes dressing the part really helps to set the appropriate vibe for the service. For one of our Dec. services (see photo), we had the team dress as if they were outside in winter, which fit in well with our outdoorsy-looking trees.
Other times, we put the choir in Colts jerseys (not last year, obviously), dressed in Hawaiian shirts for a “surf/island” feel – once in Chicago, we did a series called “Chicagocity” and dressed up with a Blues Brother’s vibe (that might have been taking it a bit far, now that I think about it…).

Hmmm - well, let's see...
I'm a Christian, a husband, a dad, a son, a pastor, a consultant, a musician, a writer, and bits and pieces of a bunch of other things. My work life has followed three main phases - business to teaching to church. I was the Weekend Services Pastor for nine years at Northview Church, an awesome church in the Indianapolis suburbs. I used to work for Willow Creek, another awesome church in the Chicago area. Plus I've written for various magazines and websites, and other freelancy sorts of things... My life mission is to help the church be as excellent as it can be.
Oh yeah - the name's Greg. Greg Wallace. But not the race car driver or the major league pitcher or the British celebrity chef. Just the creative worship guy. Hi.
It's my hope that these ideas, musings, rants, raves, etc... will inspire you. They're just my opinions - but again, I hope that they'll help to inspire you. Because the church really, really needs inspired creative types. If you're a creative type (and most people are, deep-down), ask God for help. Then take any ideas that are useful to you - borrow them, nab them, use them, adapt them - and make them into something greater...
