Description
This series aims to show how Christian doctrine can be explored and expounded through the arts, especially the visual and musical arts. It is not primarily a series in the arts, but a one in theology--theology pursued in an artistic way. The listener will discover that the arts have a unique and irreplaceable part to play in the growth of Christian wisdom: difficult and unfamiliar themes are brought to the light and made clearer, and familiar themes opened up in novel and exciting ways.
