How can the arts witness to the transcendence of the Christian God? Many people believe that there is something transcendent about the arts, that they can awaken a profound sense of awe, wonder, and mystery, of something "beyond" this world--even for those who may have no use for conventional forms of Christianity. In this book Jeremy Begbie--a leading voice on theology and the arts--employs a biblical, Trinitarian imagination to show how Christian involvement in the arts can be shaped by the distinctive vision of God's transcendence opened up in and through Jesus Christ.

Creation and the new creation are inextricably bound, for the God who created the world is the same God who promises a new heaven and a new earth. Bringing together theologians, biblical scholars, and artists, this volume based on the DITA10 conference at Duke Divinity School explores how the relation between creation and the new creation is informed by and reflected in the arts.
