James D JanzenJames Janzen lives his life on the common ground of worship, creativity and education. After a career of teaching artists young and old, amateur and professional, he seeks to nurture the artistic temperament and help artists find their place in the curch. He has a burden to help churches understand artists' unique gifting and contribution to all aspects of church life. His passion is building creative communities that reflect the glory of God and proclaim the truth of Scripture. He has served as missionary, teacher, pastor, professor, conductor, musician, worship leader and directed the Worship and Performing Arts Program at Prairie Bible College, Three Hills, Alberta for more than a decade. Currently he teaches extensively abroad and in Canada, working closely with SEND International, Music in World Cultures, TeachBeyond and the Christian Music Academy in Ukraine and Eurasia to develop resources and training programs for church and post secondary institutions.
