Books of the Past are Books for Today
Introduction
Francis A. Schaeffer, Art & the Bible
“Christianity is not just “dogmatically” true or “doctrinally” true. Rather, it is true to what is there, true in the whole area of the whole [person] in all of life.”
“The Christian is the one whose imagination should fly beyond the stars.”

Nicholas Wolterstorff, Art in Action
“At the foundation of the alternative which I propose is the thesis that works of art are instruments and objects of action – and then, of an enormous diversity of actions. Hence the title: Art in Action. What I propose is a functional approach to art.”

Calvin Seerveld
Jeremy Begbie says of Seerveld –
“Few have done as much in the last 20 years to put the arts firmly on the agenda of the Church. He has refused to let us off the intellectual hook, insisting that we press the implications of the Gospel into every corner of the arts world.”

From Reading to Action…
Artist/Artisan
Pastor/Worship Committee
“A faith project in Christian artistry will never be healthy among us until there is a living sense of Christian community... God has set things up so that cultural endeavor is always a communal enterprise, done by trained men and women in concert, gripped by a spirit that is larger than each one individually and that pulls them together as they do their formative work.” Calvin Seerveld

“The more exclusively we acknowledge Christ as Lord, the more wide the range of
his dominion will be revealed to us.”Dietrich Bonhoeffer
