This work focuses on developing an organizational leadership model in the context of a postmodern worldview. It is concerned with addressing questions influencing the current stage of the evangelical church and the subsequent impact on church leadership. The primary premise of the work is that by nature we are all creative beings. If God is a creator God, and we are created in His image, then there is something in us that seeks to create, and see the works of our hands and say, 'it is good.' Therefore, a goal of leadership is to bring out creativity in people. The term creative expression is used in this work to describe the creative process evident in all disciplines. Organizational leadership in a postmodern world must inspire creative expression. Specific dynamics for effective organizational leadership will be examined. We introduce two ministry sites that will serve as our laboratory for the practical application and evaluation of this research. The thesis concludes with suggestions for returning the church to a more balanced and biblical foundation. By examining the cultural environment necessary to inspire to artist, it will be possible to develop the God-given creative expression in everyone. The practical outcome of this thesis will be an organizational leadership model for a postmodern world that inspires creative expression in people.
