About this ebook
What does art have to do with faith?
For many Christians, paintings, films, music, and other forms of art are simply used for wall decoration, entertaining distraction, or worshipful devotion. But what if the arts played a more prominent role in the Christian life?
In Discovering God through the Arts, discover how the arts can be tools for faith-building, life-changing spiritual formation for all Christians. Terry Glaspey, author of 75 Masterpieces Every Christian Should Know, examines:
- How the arts assist us in prayer and contemplation
- How the arts help us rediscover a sense of wonder
- How the arts help us deal with emotions
- How the arts aid theological reflection and so much more.
Let your faith be enriched, and discover how beauty and creativity can draw you nearer to the ultimate Creator.
