  Faith in the Arts

  Is it good that faith is back in the arts?

  Jul 17, 202647 min

  So, it seems that in some senses faith is back in the arts. But is that a good thing? In this episode, we explore how the recent increased interest in Christianity in culture and the arts might affect the culture, the church and those of us working in the arts. Is this a new day for the Christian imagination or should we be wary about the type of Christianity that is back in the arts right now?
