description: The arts--merely entertaining or indispensable? The arts belong to the Christian life. And in 'The Liberated Imagination' author Leland Ryken explores the God-ordained significance of art-its nature and purpose in relating to truth and everyday life. For both artist and audience, for student, teacher, and critic, this book is a road to discovering how participation in art and the imagination 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.
