The Artistic Sphere: The Arts in Neo-Calvinist Perspective

June 28 - 2024
While some Christians have embraced the relationship between faith and the arts, the Reformed tradition tends to harbor reservations about the arts. This volume, edited by art scholar Roger Henderson and Marleen Hengelaar-Rookmaaker, the daughter of art historian and cultural critic Hans Rookmaaker, brings together history, philosophy, and theology to consider the relationship between the arts and the Neo-Calvinist tradition. With affirmations including the Lordship of Christ, the cultural mandate, sphere sovereignty, and common grace, the Neo-Calvinist tradition is well-equipped to offer wisdom on the arts to the whole body of Christ.
