What do we discover at the intersection of Scripture and cinema? When analyzed through a Biblical lens, what can film teach us about the culture that surrounds us, the God we worship, and the Christian life we lead?
The arts and the sciences do have a place in the Christian life - they are not peripheral. For a Christian, redeemed by the work of Christ and living within the norms of Scripture and under the leadership of the Holy Spirit, the lordship of Christ should include an interest in the arts. A Christian should use these arts to the glory of God, not just as tracts, mind you, but as things of beauty to the praise of God. An art work can be a doxology in itself.
Francis Schaeffer, “Art and the Bible”
