Education Action Network is indebted to its ever-enthusiastic tutors for devising a five-week Thursday evening course on Worship and the Arts.
This is not a certified Journey in Faith unit; just one to enjoy and extend our knowledge.
It begins by exploring worship and literature with Revd David Jasper, Professor of Literature and Theology at University of Glasgow.
This is followed by an evening with the diocesan architect, Rebecca Cadie, as she discusses church architecture as Christianity evolved.
The next lecture, by Revd Donald Orr, secretary to the arts chaplaincy in Scotland, considers painting in worship.
He’ll offer insights on what we see, what the artist wanted us to see.
Music will be the next topic, covering the history of music in worship and the changes and patterns that have evolved.
Last of all Chris Taylor, chaplain to the arts in Cumbria, will guide participants through the drama of worship.
Classes are all at Holy Trinity & St Barnabas, Paisley, 7.30pm, starting 1 September.
Booking forms will be available soon. To register interest, contact .
