Craftsmanship
The charism of craftsmanship empowers one with a special grace to attract others to God’s truth, beauty and goodness through artistic or created work in the physical world. The Holy Spirit gives some the gift of artistry along with a passion for building and creating things. This gift involves any/all types of crafts/skills from woodworking, painting, sewing, computer skills to photography. The creations of the craftsman are used to further beautify God’s creation and help edify and inspire others to grow closer in relationship with God.
The charism of craftsmanship unites the powerful relationship between holiness and creativity. It is with this gift that the Spirit empowers creativity to connect our faith and relationship with God to the physical world around us. Individuals with this charism become channels of God’s love and beauty through their creations. A craftsman finds joy and life in sharing their creation with others for the glory of God.
The true definition of this gift includes art in ordinary daily lives, such as, cooking, sewing and building/making a home. More notably we think of the gift of craftsmanship in the extraordinary ways of painting, sculpture and crafting but the more ordinary ways are just as important. The craftsman is a co-creator with our Divine Creator.
