Isolating individualism, rank injustice, and everyday monotony threaten to suffocate our souls. But Wesley Vander Lugt shows how beauty can breathe life back into us. Written in a graceful cadence that invites readers to turn these pages slowly, Beauty Is Oxygen weaves together theological reflection, poetry, cultural criticism, and Scripture. Throughout, Vander Lugt shows how beauty can break us out of self-centered malaise, promote healing and hope for our broken world, and reenchant our lives. Beauty is about more than positive feelings or pleasing aesthetics. Beauty is as essential to our souls as oxygen is to our bodies. As readers encounter these traces of divine glory in Vander Lugt's finely crafted meditations, they will find how Christ will "make all things new.""-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Aesthetics $x Christianity. $x Christianity. 650 0 $a Christianity and culture. 650 0 $a Faith $x Christianity. $x Christianity. 650 0 $a Art and religion. 650 0 $a Spirituality. 650 6 $a Art et religion. 650 6 $a SpiritualiteÌ. 650 7 $a RELIGION / Christianity / Literature & the Arts. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a PHILOSOPHY / Religious. $2 bisacsh 941 $a 1 952 $l OUAX845 $d 20240816052348.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=FAF300385B9611EFABE9BE7952ECA4DB 994 $a 92 $b IOTInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
