Our lives are shaped by the things that appeal to our imaginations and influence our desires. This includes the stories we are told through novels and film, the music we listen to, the images we are surrounded by and even the spaces we worship in. As Christians, we must be proficient critical thinkers when it comes to the arts. The arts not only influence us, they also provide a vital language of expression that is as necessary for the expression of faith as a creed or confession. The arts have always played a central role in the expression of the Christian church down through the centuries and therefore they are also a crucial window to church history. This course will examine the influence that the arts can, do, and have had on the Christian imagination. The course is not designed just for those involved in the arts. It is designed to help all Christian students appreciate and understand the various artforms and their significance for the expression of faith.
