Although numerous studies have examined biblical and theological
rationales for using the visual arts in worship, this book by Lisa
J. DeBoer fills in a piece of the picture missing so far - the
social dimensions of both our churches and the various art worlds
represented in our congregations. The first part of the book looks
at Orthodoxy, Catholicism, and Protestantism in turn - including
case studies of specific congregations - showing how each
tradition's use of the visual arts reveals an underlying
ecclesiology. DeBoer then focuses on six themes that emerge when
Orthodox, Catholic, and Protestant uses of the visual arts are
examined together - the arts as expressions of the church's local
and universal character, the meanings attributed to particular
styles of art for the church, the role of the arts in enculturating
the gospel, and more.
