Art and the Bible

4.60 out of 5 stars

Description

In the words of Francis Schaeffer, "the lordship of Christ should permeate every creative endeavor, elevating the arts to a realm of divine beauty." For too long, Christians have shied away from artistic expression, fearing the idolatry of graven images. Yet, the biblical narrative affirms the arts as a vital aspect of human experience, born from our innate desire to create as image-bearers of a creative God. Art and the Bible, a seminal work, has inspired generations of Christian artists. In this timeless collection of essays, Schaeffer masterfully explores the scriptural roots of various art forms, establishing a comprehensive Christian perspective on art. With eloquence and passion, he argues that the Christian's imagination should soar to unprecedented heights, unbridled by earthly constraints.
