When I was pursuing my Bachelor of Fine Arts degree, I was required to take several art history courses. But since I got my degree from a secular school, I didn’t get the Christian interpretation I craved. This lovely book from Moody Publishers invites you to appreciate God’s beauty and creativity not only through painting and sculpture, but through film, music and other contemporary formats. I’m delighting in the full-color pictures displayed inside. This is a book to feed my soul during Sabbath rests this summer.

I received a preview copy of this book from the publisher.

And in depth look on this author's life, as he uses his own stories in discovering God through creativity. An important viewpoint of how God can be seen through art. A lot of historical lessons as well as simple messages of how art can increase our connection with God. The book also has photos, mostly thumbnails, of the art he mentions. I appreciate Netgalley, the author, and the publisher for allowing me to review the book. The ARC was a bit difficult to read, but it was worth it.

A scholarly title with tons of information about the arts. The author’s descriptions and how the arts effected him personally.
