Celebrating the Arts
“I would love to see the arts engage the imagination of our community in such a way that people would see themselves as being made in the image of God, and that there would be joy and a sense of responsibility with that revelation. We don’t talk about Jesus of Nazareth as an artist, but we do talk about him as a storyteller and I think storytelling is an art. Through it he engaged people. It was a powerful event in people’s lives—they were drawn into it and were forced to respond.”
~Kenny Woodall, New City Community
