God. Beauty. Art. Theology. Editors Mark Husbands, Roger Lundin and Daniel J. Treier present ten essays from the 2006 Wheaton Theology Conference that explore a Christian approach to beauty and the arts. Theology has much to contribute in providing a place for the arts in the Christian life, and the arts have much to contribute to the quality of Christian life, worship and witness. The 2006 Wheaton Theology Conference explored a wide-ranging Christian approach to divine beauty and the earthly arts. Written and illustrated by artists and theologians, these essays illuminate for us the Christian significance of the visual arts, music and literature, as well as sounding forth the theological meaning and place of the arts in a fallen world--fallen, yet redeemed by Christ. Here is a veritable feast for pastors, artists, theologians and students eager to consider the profound but not necessarily obvious connection between Christianity and the arts.

"This book contains small-minded ideas trying to pass as philosophy. A huge disappointment. God would be disappointed, too. If you are a scholar or even a casual reader, don't bother."

- Informative read!
- Christ's beauty is reflected in the fullness of God's character revealed in Him and the creation Christ set in motion through His Word.
“Worship is the submission of all of our nature to God.
It is the quickening of conscience by His holiness,
Nourishment of mind by His truth,
Purifying of imagination by His beauty,
Opening of the heart to His love,
And submission of will to his purpose.
And all this gathered up in adoration is the greatest of human expressions of which we are capable.â€
And I would add, enabled by our faith in Him from His grace to us by His Spirit of truth because of His love for us seen in His Son Jesus Christ.
Archbishop William Temple
Many of the essays found in this book echo this theme. - This book had great perspectives on the meaning of beauty - true beauty from God's point of view. Great thought provoking reading!
- This book contains small-minded ideas trying to pass as philosophy. A huge disappointment. God would be disappointed, too. If you are a scholar or even a casual reader, don't bother.
