Guidelines
Lionshead Café Guidelines
Primary Purpose: Collaboration
· Lionshead Café is open for members of the League of Christian Artists to meet, exchange ideas, conceptualize, design, harmonize, encourage, collaborate and support each other.
· It’s not a place for theological debate and political arguments. There’s nothing wrong with those things. This is just not the place for them. There are some very good ones out there if that’s what you’re looking for. This ain’t one of ‘em.
· This is not a hangout for dissidents, revolutionaries, malcontents and radicals to express their frustrations over why the world is going to hell in a hand basket.
· Please respect each other and do not bad mouth any individuals or groups or their work.
· Negativespeak is basically destructive. Be constructive. Don’t be disagreeable. You can certainly be questioning without being disrespectful.
· We’re not fighting the devil. We’re expressing the kingdom.
· If one of us can chase a thousand enemies and two can put ten thousand to flight, the spiritual implication is that two people agreeing and working together can have ten times more kingdom-building impact than one person alone. Each additional collaborative person should accelerate the process exponentially. The creative process works the same way. Someone has a good idea. Others come alongside to help or contribute.
· If you want agreement in prayer, express yourself here in the Café. If you want to agree with a particular request, add your name and comments or questions.
· If you commit yourself to pray, then pray. Don’t say you’re going to pray and then not do it.
· Someone is responsible for this cafe and what you say here may be overheard by the wait staff, not to mention your contemporaries worldwide. If your stuff gets nasty, distasteful, or contentious, your table will be cleared and you probably won’t be served here anymore.
· Remember, what we’re trying to do here is actually activate the creative process among those seated at the table so the sum of our conversation is greater than its parts.
· Friends should be made. Thoughts should be expressed. Great ideas should be born. Projects should be launched. Worlds should be changed through mutual artistic endeavor.
· These are the basics. Too many rules can be cumbersome and we don’t want to scare off anyone who might have something valuable to say. This should do for now.
