There, but For the Grace of God
there but for the Grace of God lay I still paralyzed but not still devoid of peace bereft of hope leper perishing languishing, lost, in a bed, in, deep in oppressive, depressive despair, slave to myself, blind to all else... only by His command was I able to rise! And come forth broken one foot in front of the other unsure afraid desperately alone unloved unwa...

The Dialogue Continues
Kenyon Adams A friend of mine tells a story of a woman he loved and lost to a terminal illness. He recalls how he strove to make her last days so full of life. She dreamed of going to Italy, and because it was clear she would never make it there he transformed her hospital bedroom into a living Italian montage complete with a gondola! He painted the walls with scenes from...

Walking With Christ
Maria Fee Reading Roberto Goizueta’s Caminemos Con Cristo (we shall walk with Christ) startled me into realizing how much my own theology of work aimed folks solely towards kingdom transformation in our world. To be sure, this is a good and a worthy project, but Goizueta has reminded me how social transformation is not our end and purpose. In Genesis, God deems huma...

Aesthetics, therefore, relies on desire, this in turn, incites us towards action. This is one of the theories William Dyrness works with in his latest book, Poetic Theology.

It's the kind of thing you could walk by every day and never notice at all. But as I took in the scene, I was impacted and, honestly, a little disgusted at it's current state. I began to imagine what it ...

The Reality of Abundance
On the table of pine Stood a tiny Bowl of Blackberries You poured into it the whitest cream. In the corner her tail Wrapped around her tiny body As herself she did softly clean. Outside on the lawn Gently blowing the linen Almost as if it were a dream. And in the porcelain sink My sorrows deep. Pulled the drain and I sent t...

The Practice of Pilgrimage
Maria Fee Amid many recent faith and art conversations, including James K.A. Smith’s Gospel & Culture lecture, one point keeps coming up: talk is good, information invaluable, but transformation also happens through thedoing. There is a need in our technological society for Christians to form new practices and disciplines that direct us to the triune God, which ...

The Diving Bell and the Butterflybeautifully conveys the human capacity to create and generate art despite tragic and confining perimeters through the story of Jean-Dominique Bauby, ...
