Faith & Beauty

Creation points to the beauty of God. Since forever, the fine arts teach us that beauty is the expression of our longing for God. Faith without the works of beauty is lifeless and unattractive to mankind. Author André Bégert states in his book „Faith and Beauty“ that we need a renaissance of beauty for a revolution of faith: „The Reformation threw the baby out with the bath water and banned beauty – together with false gods – from the church. But faith needs beauty in order to be attractive and flourishing.“ André Bégert tells in various essays stories about moments that remind us about our calling: We are called to truth and beauty.
