Art Retreat
There are Truths that nail you to the beam. In 1 Corinthians Paul talks about infants in
Christ needing milk because they are unable to understand the “solid” nature of
the truths of God. He goes on to say in
4:16-17 that these babes should “be imitators of me” and that he is sending
them Timothy to “remind you of my ways”, each statement being made because of
Paul’s assurance that he is in Christ. It
is no small matter to encourage others to imitate you because they can be
assured you are imitating Christ. Art students
have a right to expect their professor to “Profess” the truth. However it is quite another thing to be
assured they are professing The Truth in art as it is lived out in them. What nailed me to the beam this morning? Knowing that if this be true of me it is imperative
that I place myself in a position where I am the infant with another artist who
can faithfully say, “Lee imitate me because I can assure you I am imitating
Christ.”
