Pursuing Christ. Creating Art.: Exploring Life At The Intersection Of Faith And Creativity
I'm honored to offer this book to you. I've taken the deepest part of my artist's heart, given words to its expression, and dumped it into the middle of a Christ-follower's journey.I was a pastor for 17 very full-time years, so that experience plays into everything that I've written in these pages. But I was never a Senior/Preaching Pastor - I was a Creative Arts Pastor. As a result, for years and years, I lived in the constant tension of faith and creativity.And that's where this book is written from, and where it's heading toward.If you're looking for answers and formulas, then this book probably isn't a good choice for you. There are plenty of informational books out there, written by men and women far more knowledgeable about art theory and practice than I. I'm exploring, and trying to help the reader explore, too.Finally, I'm not concerned with this book getting into as many hands as possible. I'm concerned with this book getting into the right hands - the hands of people who are pursuing Christ with their lives, and who are open to creating impacting art from that place.Thanks for taking the time to read this message from me.GM
