We've been going through an amazing Sunday school class on beauty and the arts. (You can read some about it here.) Our week on "story" was especially inspiring. It's been great. :-)
This past week we also got an awesome sermon on beauty! You should check it out!
Beauty in the Bible by Pastor Tuuri
I've been thinking about this a lot. I went back and read a post I did in February, Modern Mediocrity in Christian Art. I think its all mulling around still. There are so many interesting things to read on the subject...and frankly, I feel pretty dumb.
The main thing I understand is...Christians should take the arts seriously! (And that includes writing, by the way.)
So yeah...
Miss Pickwickian
That was an AMAZING sermon.
ReplyDeleteIt was a good sermon! I liked that he highlighted how important beauty is to God and it's not good enough for things to merely be 'functional'... they should be beautiful, too!
