Poets

Poets cannot understand

war or

economics or

politics or

auto mechanics or

even bookkeeping

although they may pretend to.

These are things without love.

Poets can only

caress or

cradle or

nurse or

ween or

cause pain,

the kind that brings hope.

Christian Manifesto of Art

1. God uses emotional extremes to create art. 2. Prayer increases creativity in that it feeds the Spirit. 3. Art is a reflection of the Creator. 4. Art may not always be attractive, but it is always aesthetic. 4. Art made by Christians should edify the Body of Christ. 5. Because of the lack of cultural and artistic awareness in our present society, art will often threaten, anger, or confuse members of the Body of Christ. 6. The Christian artist should be patient in communicating art to the Body of Christ. 7. Because Christianity believes in certain core absolutes, and art is by its nature exploratory and questioning, the Christian artist may find himself or herself at odds with institutions within the scope of Christianity and with artists outside the scope of Christianity. In times such as this, Christian artists from all fields must support one another.
