| Résumé : |
Quite near to each of us is a door opening out to an exhilarating view of universal reality—a trustworthy perspective on mankind’s deepest responses to divine truth.
And yet, most of us let the hinges rust and keep the latch double-bolted! That nearby door is art in its many forms, and the tendency of many Christians is to withdraw. We risk ineffectiveness in our earthly mission by failing to appreciate the human soul-baring which art records. Confident that the Bible’s guidelines will steer us away from misusing art, Leland Ryken explores here the God-ordained significance of art. For both artist and audience, and for student and critic as well, this book is a road to discovering how participation in art leads to a more intense sharing in life’s riches, a deeper celebration of all that God has created, and a new awareness of the wideness of his grace. |
