My good friend Jacob has started a new blog and asked me to be a contributor. The blog, Image of Truth, is “dedicated to engaging aesthetics and the arts from a Biblical Christian perspective,” and will feature several contributors from a range of protestant traditions. The goals for the blog are listed as:

• To equip the Church to recognize the importance of beauty and developing a truly biblical aesthetic, that is, a philosophy of beauty.
• To equip the Church to recognize the importance and sanctity of the arts in the daily life of the Christian and the corporate Church, as well as in the history of God’s people over the course of history. Specifically, we will address issues of visual art [drawing, painting, sculpture, printing, etc], music, theater, film, and literature.
• To engage the arts in our contemporary culture. Interacting with and analyzing various artistic expressions today, from contemporary art to music, film, and theater.

I’m really excited about the opportunity. I will continue posting here at katagraphais, of course, and will also cross post my Image of Truth postings here as well.
