God. Creation. Art. Grab a Cuppa Joe and Let's Talk...

God. Creation. Art. How do they intertwine? How do they apply to the modern world? How have they worked in the past? What is their role in society? What is their purpose? How have they been neglected? How have they been exploited? What is our role as Christian artists and how do we translate it all into our everyday life? These questions and more fascinate us. So, we thought it would be interesting to start a blog and see what kind of network and conversations would result.

God. Creation. Art. Grab a Cuppa Joe and Let's Talk...

God. Creation. Art. How do they intertwine? How do they apply to the modern world? How have they worked in the past? What is their role in society? What is their purpose? How have they been neglected? How have they been exploited? What is our role as Christian artists and how do we translate it all into our everyday life?

These questions and more fascinate us. So, we thought it would be interesting to start a blog and see what kind of network and conversations would result.

Our names are Sherisa and Ali. We are followers of Christ with a passion to see God glorified through the arts. We are students at an arts college. Both of us have dance backgrounds. Ali is majoring in dance and Sherisa started as a theatre major but is now majoring in Arts, Entertainment and Media Management. We are not artistic experts, but we do have a yearning for knowledge, a love of deep conversations, and a burning desire to understand and see the arts as God sees them.

We want this blog to be a means of connecting with others who share a passion and an interest to see God’s power through the arts—in countless ways through multiple mediums using every discipline. We believe that through the arts hearts and lives can be touched in incredible ways. We want to find and create a network of people who can support each other as they follow the dreams God has placed on their hearts.

So, like we said, grab a cuppa Joe, and let’s start talking…
