Imagine That: Discovering Your Unique Role as a Christian Artist
If you want to grow in your understanding of what it means to be  an artist for Christ, if you want a working theology of the arts, or if you want  to learn what God says about the arts (and artists), read this book! Manuel Luz  speaks authoritatively from God's Word and convincingly from his many years of experience.  Throughout the book, you will laugh at some of his personal anecdotes, be stirred  by his ideas, and be motivated by his passion. But more importantly, you will be  drawn closer to Christ.-Rory Noland, author, director of Heart of the Artist  MinistriesManuel Luz has made a good and helpful contribution to the  present-day conversation surrounding the arts and Christian faith. Discover for  yourself the unique calling of those privileged to imagination for Jesus and His  kingdom coming. You'll be enriched and inspired.-Charlie Peacock, co-director,  Art House America and author ofNew Way to Be HumanIn this  much needed work, Manuel Luz paints for us a theology of art that is as stimulating  as it is biblical. Forged from the pen of an artist, this book provides fresh insights  into how a postmodern generation can engage the God who creates and re-creates.-Christian  George, author of Sex, Sushi & Salvation and GodologyI always think  of Manuel Luz as the rocket scientist who became a worship arts leader. This book  is written out of the trenches of Manuel's discoveries as an artist, pastor, and  worship leader who has devoted most of his adult life to serving the local church.  I deeply appreciate the thoughtfulness of this book, and believe it will serve as  a tremendous tool for any Christian artist looking for guidance from someone who  has wrestled with the Scriptures, theological truth, and the practical everyday  challenges of unleashing artistic gifts in the kingdom of God.-Nancy Beach,  Champion for the Arts, Willow Creek Association, and author ofAn Hour on Sunday:  Creating Moments of Transformation and WonderManuel Luz and I have  recorded together, prayed together, cried together, and ministered together in America  and beyond over the last twenty years. InImagine Thathe has written what  amounts to a theology of the Christian arts. I can't think of anyone more practically  qualified to write about this subject; he has thought about it and he has lived  it. If you're looking for your place as a Christian artist, you will surely find  trustworthy pathway markers for your journey in this book.
