Glory Be
By: Kenyon Adams Spend any serious amount of time working in the arts and you’re bound to stumble upon one or two or more moments of glory: a triple turn on point, the high C at 10am finished with a buttery vibrato, the character writing himself into your novel as you sit in your pajamas at midnight surrounded by rough drafts. It’s all too easy to live in the ...

The Church, The Artist and The Handshake
By: Maria Fee “The door handle is the handshake of the building.” Juhani Pallasmaa Like a door knob, what does it signal when a church fosters an arts ministry? Lately, I’ve been reflecting on the shape and form of the arts ministry at Redeemer mainly because I’ve been fortunate to work in such a ministry, but also because I will move on to serv...

Make the Cake and Eat It, Too
By: Maria Fee “Lately, I’ve been thinking about Jesus in the manner of how he is all consuming.” Or, it was something in this vein the artist Melissa Beck articulated during my recent visit to her Pratt studio. Evidence of this statement filled my eyes as I perused one of her utensil pieces: a horizontal band of silver-plated forks happily glue...

Eternal LIFE
By: Kenyon Adams Seeing Werner Schroeter’s grotesque and penetrating film Two at the MoMA’s retrospective of the German filmmaker this week sent me away with a new awareness of the commonality between love and death. Outside the theater after the 117 minute screening one wondered if any of the audience, those who stayed until the end, really got anything out o...

Time Continuum
By: Maria Fee What does the worker gain from his toil? I have seen the burden God has laid on men. He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the hearts of men; yet they cannot fathom what God has done from beginning to the end. Ecclesiastes 3:9-11 Time present and time past Are both perhaps present in time future, And t...

Kingdom Waiting
By: Maria Fee I’m always amazed how Jesus’ parables convey a kingdom not estranged from this world, but very much bound to it. Despite the eschatological-end times dimension found in Matthew 25, the three stories within focus on the work accomplished in the present. In the first narrative we come across ten virgins awaiting the bridegroom in order to ...

Not as the Flowers
By: Maria Fee It was not as the flowers, each soft Spring recurrent; it was not as His Spirit in the mouths and fuddled eyes of the eleven apostles; it was as His flesh: ours. -John Updike, Seven Stanzas at Easter, Stanza 2 The lilies that will adorn our churches this Sunday are redolent of fresh life, yet for Updike this symbol is much too subdued....
