Echoes of Eden: Reflections on Christianity, Literature, and the Arts by Jerram Barrs
4.0
As a Christian, an artist, and an avid reader, I often look for books that discuss those three things.
That being said, I went into this book carefully. I strongly disagree with some beliefs about such things and was worried this book would just be a warning against "things of the world".
I was so pleased with this book! Instead, it was a very thoughtful look at many different aspects, the importance of creating, the importance of creating a reflection, and how as Christians, we should look for the redemption in all stories we ingest.
I would highly recommend it to anyone who wants to be more conscious in their role both as a Christian and someone who enjoys art.
This book is a great introduction, and I look forward to finding more books of this sort that dive deeper.
