Here we are, approaching the beginning of a new month.

(Some of us are still in mourning from the end of the Olympics.)

But we all know what the beginning of a new month means.

Glimpses!

This month, I have an interview with, story of, and art by Makoto Fujimura. I also have a blurb on worshipping creatively in your Church. You can sign up on the sidebar.

Also, ready for the big announcement?

(No, Mom, I'm not pregnant.)

Glimpses ezine features Christianity in art and life. Each month, subscribers receive in their email an issue that contains a feature on a person or group, a work of art, such as visual art, poetry, and flash fiction, and a devotional on what it means to live as the Church creatively. Also watch for opportunities to win free giveaways. In the past, Glimpses has given away books, audio books, music, and artwork.

Subscriptions are free, and when you sign-up, you'll receive a free copy of Reel Studies: A Study Tool for Bible Stories. Reel Studies gives you practical, easy-to-use literary tools for understanding the stories of the Bible.

What others are saying about Glimpses:

Glimpses ezine merges social consciousness, the arts, and solid Biblical theology to deliver a monthly conversation that draws me out of the role of "armchair Christian" and into the challenge of active devotion with the gifts the Lord has given me for right here, right now.

Erin Teske, Artist and Cofounder of Soul Per Suit

As a bi-vo pastor and business owner I have a very tight schedule and have little time to read all that is sent my way via email. However, I look forward to receiving Glimpses for its rich content on a single page. I'm challenged and encouraged.

's about time

Trying to take time out for personal thought and reflection doesn't always happen. When I get my Glimpses ezine 's a good time to do that. I sit and immediately travel to In Her Art, move to In Her Story then on to As the Church. Remembering how others work in the Body of Christ changes my day and my outlook.

Christina Kieffer, Visual Artist

 

Glimpses ezine provides a bridge between art and theology by showing the impact the two have on my everyday life. Through personal interviews, devotions, and the fine arts, Glimpses provides extraordinary encouragement for my Christian walk. As a visual artist it provides a source of information and inspiration. It's a must read every month.

Ryan Holmes, Digital Artist at Dallas Theological Seminary

Past issues have included interviews with David Taylor, Barbara Nicolosi, Andy Crouch, along with other artists, writers, and theologians, and art by Makoto Fujimura, L.L. Barkat, and others. Samples of past issues.
