      <image:caption>Walter Cabal Writer I have a medical condition called Dysthymia, the subsequent depression can leave me existentially helpless and blind from day today. It’s in the silky, beautiful dissonance of ‘never having’ found in Wong Kar Wai’s films where I accepted what falls through the holes in our hands; from the sandpaper textures in Stray From The Path‘s screaming songs that I learned that anger’s fire still emits light when we feel the need to throw tables at injustice, and it’s from the incredibly quiet and alone poems of poet Mary Oliver that I learned that prayer and poetry are made of the same spirit; guided by the same helper. If all scripture is God-breathed, then I believe art has taught me that anything with life-giving breath in it - is a kind of scripture. When I allow art’s dissonance to rub saliva and dirt in my eyes - somehow I begin to see.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Shonette Reed Writer I spent the second half of my elementary school education in an after school program. With two working parents, it was important to them that my brothers and I were afforded experiences that were beneficial to us. So, I read. I read The House on Mango Street by Sandra Cisneros and A Light in the Attic and Where The Sidewalk Ends by Shel Silverstein. These were all books that enabled me to try writing in the fourth grade. Books that offered me the chance to see how these writers viewed other people and the happenings of life.⁣⁣⁣ ⁣ As a Christian, writing has allowed space for me to explore and sit with my emotions; it has allowed me to navigate the tough parts of my own story. And through that, I am able to hold the stories of others with more care. It is a constant meeting with God for me.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Marc Phun Photographer The awakening of new life meets me when I intercede through art; whether a song of thanksgiving or a poem of deep sorrow. Music and literature allow peace to resound through my imperfect veins.⁣ ⁣ One of the first songs I wrote was called 'Hold On', and it spoke to the joy of clinging to Jesus. I remember singing this once, too exhausted for tears to flow, finding reconciliation in my stillness and finding chains loosened in myself. We surely are free, our Creator says so.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Joey Samante Photographer Art and beauty—I receive most of it where I live in Oahu, Hawaii. The power of the waves. The sun kissing the ocean every night. The vibrant blue sky and cotton candy clouds. How the wind cues the trees when to dance and that inviting smell of morning dew. As the salt air gently presses against my skin, while nature sings an ancient song, I take a pause to think “what a masterpiece”. ⁣ On my sabbath, I go off the grid to spend quality time with Jesus. These are the days where I’m most influenced and spiritually inspired to create and live. Psalm 27:4 says “I will dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to gaze upon the beauty of the Lord”. What God displays is beautiful, but its more than that, He is Beauty and his art is his love for the world and me. A beauty so great, it causes me to come back to see it again and again. All the days of my life. ⁣</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Eric Benjamin Ham Photographer Terrence Malick’s film “The Tree of Life” has been one of the most influential works of art for me and my spiritual journey.⁣ The film is epic, and delicate, as it takes the viewer from the beginning of time to the end of time. It explores the complexities of grief, family, and faith, all-the-while maintaining a message of grace and forgiveness.⁣ Through its visual style, direction, and narrative, film has greatly informed the way that I create, perceive the world, relate to God. After countless viewings, I believe it to be a masterpiece.⁣</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Daniel Bultedaob Photographer I’ve taken photos for a long time, but I’ve always desired a greater purpose for them. How can I channel the creative desire into something of meaning? While on outreach in Papua New Guinea, Jesus gave me an answer. ⁣ “Pursue me above all, and I’ll do the rest.”⁣ What unfolded over the following years was a journey of learning that my creativity needed to come from the overflow of my relationship with Him. I am called to love Him with all I am first and foremost, and from that place, He would flow into and through all the other aspects of my life. My art would have an impact not because of my effort or talent, but through His presence in it.⁣ ⁣</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Grace Weimer Photographer I vividly remember first time I experienced art not just as a means of expression, but as one of communication. The creative process took on another dimension for me, one with parallel windows in which inspiration came and went with a whisper. The feeling was one of sitting outside of time, with words shimmering into every sense and images burning so brilliantly in my mind blinking couldn't shake it. The moment is in my life a cairn, which upon leaving I knew God differently, and left humbled. Art is incredibly transcendent, and remains to me one of the most human practices we are able to engage.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Elle Suko Photographer One of my favorite things about art is how it has the potential to build a bridge between the human mind and God. I see Him in the colors of the sky after sunset, in the thoughts strewn together by a poet, in the unified melody of an orchestra, and in small, every day occurrences.⁣ The divine notions communicated through photography, music, films, and literature pull on something deep in my heart that causes me to kneel before the Creator. Experiencing His beauty through the humble creations of human artists brings to life for me the words declared by King Solomon: “the whole earth is full of His glory.” (Psalm 72:19)⁣</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Charis Wong Photographer I recently graduated from University of Toronto's Voice Performance Program, and for a time was considering continuing into a Masters in the same field. During that time I thought a lot about the nature of art and music, namely the question, “is it necessary?” ⁣I felt that the career path I had chosen didn’t have the same weight as other professions—a doctor saves lives, a singer can only sing. In fear, I questioned whether God could use my small offering for His purpose. It was not until a dear friend of mine pointed to scripture that I remembered God’s love for his people manifests itself partly in the good gifts He gives, and none of these gifts are without purpose. why, apart from a God who is beautiful and who loves beauty, would He command the making of ornate and intricate designs of pomegranates and flowers to decorate His temple? Our God rejoices over us with loud singing, and we respond with worship in song—He delights in our singing, our designing, our painting. Our desire for beauty is God-given, not to gratify ourselves, but to drive us to look at His perfection, and glorify Him. His image is the most beautiful, the most desirable, the most satisfying. ⁣</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Strahan Coleman Folk Psalmist Art, and music in particular, has always been a thin place for me. One particularly holy moment was an evening during a holiday with friends over 10 years ago. I was playing and singing with others when I began to see colours and shapes coming out of me. I felt taken over, which is something that I’ve only felt a few times in that way in my life since, and I suddenly began to hear words being spoken to me that I would repeat in melody. It was totally spontaneous, beautiful and honestly quite overwhelming. That experience left a mystical imprint on my understanding of song and has shaped a lot of both my work and spirituality since.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Morgan Kelly Photographer For me, the biggest draw as a creator is that God is the ultimate Creator. Being made in His image and likeness means that we bare His traits, and so following in the Lord’s creative path for me is truly what makes me feel most aligned with His heart, when I get to share in the same creative likeness. As for artistic inspiration, two street photographers that I’ve been constantly intrigued by are Vivian Maier &amp; Joe Greer in the way they capture people &amp; moments in the most raw &amp; pure sense.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Walter Cabal Writer I have a medical condition called Dysthymia, the subsequent depression can leave me existentially helpless and blind from day today. It’s in the silky, beautiful dissonance of ‘never having’ found in Wong Kar Wai’s films where I accepted what falls through the holes in our hands; from the sandpaper textures in Stray From The Path‘s screaming songs that I learned that anger’s fire still emits light when we feel the need to throw tables at injustice, and it’s from the incredibly quiet and alone poems of poet Mary Oliver that I learned that prayer and poetry are made of the same spirit; guided by the same helper.</image:caption>

When I allow art’s dissonance to rub saliva and dirt in my eyes - somehow I begin to see.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Faces Behind Ekstasis</image:title>
      <image:caption>Andrea Nwabuike | Contributing Editor When I first read Half of a Yellow Sun by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, I felt as though I had returned home after a long and tiresome journey. The journey was my search for characters and stories that represented my own experience, but I constantly found myself coming across dead ends. Adichie’s work reminded me that I come from a complex and multifaceted people, whose stories deserve to be told. Her work ignited my hunger for African literature and I have since gone on to feast on the words of Chinua Achebe, Ngugi Wa’Thiongo, Tricia Adaobi Nwaubani and countless others. Their stories have given me the courage to embrace my ethnic and racial identity not as a hinderance, but as a gift. With this courage comes the conviction that the gospel is relevant to all of my existence. It does not ignore my cultural identity, neither does it shy away from the injustices and inequalities of this life. The good news of Jesus Christ is powerful because it is relevant to me now, in this body and in moment time. Conviction always come with a calling; that is why I write. I write with the prayer that the Holy Spirit will give me words of truth, relevance and beauty. And I write with the hope that my craft would be an invitation to other weary sojourners to come home.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Annelise Jolley | Writer When I was studying writing in a MFA program, I read Mary Karr's memoir Lit, her story of getting drunk and getting sober and meeting God. Lit was among the first spiritual autobiographies I read that seemed to let language lead, rather than coercing words around a lesson like gift wrap. Karr's writing was irreverent and incarnational, and showed a poet's attention to language. It became a kind of touchstone for me, a reminder that the right words in the right order can lead a reader somewhere ineffable. Over the years I read more of Karr's work. I return most often to her poetry now, especially the "Descending Theology" series, which provides containers for some of the greatest mysteries of my faith: the nativity, the crucifixion, the resurrection. As a writer, I am constantly working at the impossible task of pinning words to all that can't be said. Mary Karr keeps me trying.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Abbey Sitterley | Writer In Pilgrim at Tinker Creek, Annie Dillard writes, “Our life is a faint tracing on the surface of mystery…” Every day we move and act with so much trust – in molecules and atoms, in structures, relationships and dialogues – without which, we couldn’t take a step. We tread water in a sea fathoms deep, grasping for whatever driftwood ideas greet us on a passing wave. Even as God reveals Himself in His word, there are eternal mysteries my synapses and nodes strain to comprehend: the Trinity, the Incarnation, a prodigal son welcomed home. I lack language for these things, yet feel the longing and sublimity they evoke with fervor. In my fascination with what is just beyond the realm of comprehension, image and metaphor help me get closer to conveyance. I want both my life and my work to be held in the acknowledgement of that mystery, which often looks like simply opening my hands.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Joey Samante | Photographer Art and beauty—I receive most of it where I live in Oahu, Hawaii. The power of the waves. The sun kissing the ocean every night. The vibrant blue sky and cotton candy clouds. How the wind cues the trees when to dance and that inviting smell of morning dew. As the salt air gently presses against my skin, while nature sings an ancient song, I take a pause to think “what a masterpiece”. ⁣ ⁣ You can generally tell what type of an artist the person is just by looking at their artwork. In the same way when I’m out whether on a hike getting my shoes muddy, or being engulfed by the sea on a 9’6 longboard, Beauty speaks to me saying, “you are fearfully and wonderfully made”. (Psalm 139) ⁣ ⁣ On my sabbath, I go off the grid to spend quality time with Jesus. These are the days where I’m most influenced and spiritually inspired to create and live. Psalm 27:4 says “I will dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to gaze upon the beauty of the Lord”. What God displays is beautiful, but its more than that, He is Beauty and his art is his love for the world and me. A beauty so great, it causes me to come back to see it again and again. All the days of my life.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Daniel Bultedaob | Photographer I’ve taken photos for a long time, but I’ve always desired a greater purpose for them. How can I channel the creative desire into something of meaning? While on outreach in Papua New Guinea, Jesus gave me an answer. ⁣ ⁣ “Pursue me above all, and I’ll do the rest.”⁣ ⁣ What unfolded over the following years was a journey of learning that my creativity needed to come from the overflow of my relationship with Him. I am called to love Him with all I am first and foremost, and from that place, He would flow into and through all the other aspects of my life. My art would have an impact not because of my effort or talent, but through His presence in it.⁣</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Caroline Hennekes | Photographer During my first semesters of college, Emily Dickinson spoke through poetry the unfathomable wrestlings of my fearful heart and planted a seed for growing my personal artistic philosophy. Dickinson did not shy away from confronting truths, especially the hard ones. And, though ambivalent about it, she cared for her work, sewing the pages of her poetry together and wrapping them up in twine to be found after she died. I like to think that the approach Dickinson took to poetry, I might take to painting. Her resolve was fierce, her subjects deeply complex, her manner was independent yet undoubtedly affected by Christ and by the world. She finds her refuge in line breaks and verse. Her craft is no careless, trend-following, superfluous thing. She runs to her art to be frustrated, angry, and honest about life and death. It is in this seemingly forsaken place she discovers and creates beauty. Painting has become this place for me: somewhere to sit and ponder our living, breathing, and dying—through colors and shapes. Whether in words or pictures, our greatly creative God has granted us this gift. It would be wrong not to embrace it. My prayer is that my art, like Dickinson’s, may present a safe haven to be truly honest in our yearning after Christ, and in that, find hope.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Grace Weimer | Photographer I vividly remember first time I experienced art not just as a means of expression, but as one of communication. The creative process took on another dimension for me, one with parallel windows in which inspiration came and went with a whisper. The feeling was one of sitting outside of time, with words shimmering into every sense and images burning so brilliantly in my mind blinking couldn't shake it. The moment is in my life a cairn, which upon leaving I knew God differently, and left humbled. Art is incredibly transcendent, and remains to me one of the most human practices we are able to engage.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Amy Lewis | Photographer Beauty is about so much more than what is visually pleasing; with eternity set in our hearts and a God who has made himself 'clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made’ (Romans 1:20), beauty feeds our souls with a taste of the paradise we were created for. These moments stir a sense of true belonging and peace that is so easily lost in the routine and pace of everyday life. For me, they come most often when I’m immersed in nature, art, literature and music. These things are like ‘meeting places’- the landmarks I can go to when I’ve lost my sense of connection and awe, and know that I’ll find Him waiting for me there. Reading The Chronicles of Narnia as a child was probably my first experience of the power creativity has to jolt us out of familiarity and elicit a sense of deep wonder and hope in us, drawing us into revelation and worship. I saw my own longing for the closeness of Jesus in Lucy’s desire to be with Aslan; I'm still moved by the kindness of God to use a story I loved to teach me so much about his character and how to trust the one who is both majestic, fearsome King and kind, faithful friend. Aslan gave Lucy an ointment to use in battle. Although He could breathe life into stone in an instant, he invited her to be part of the restoration story; giving the wounded a taste of this life-giving power to strengthen and sustain them. In the same way, we have the privilege of using His gift of creativity to awaken weary souls with hope, pointing always to the One who is the source of all life.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Sara Billups | Writer I first read Simone Weil during college, when I spent a semester studying in the Oregon mountains. From a cabin near the California border I wandered around the chapters of Waiting for God some 50 years after she wrote it. My surroundings were a stark contrast to Weil's, who worked in an auto plant to understand worker's conditions and served with the French Resistance. But Weil was a fearless writer, and her mysticism flared up my own young emotions and longings to understand God. I could also intuit both her Jewishness and her Christianity. That same dichotomy that was in her is in me, and it paradoxically felt like a perfect circle. "Creative attention means really giving our attention to what does not exist,” Weil writes. These are the kind of words written for anyone open to receiving them. I like to think they're especially for any seeker feeling both out of alignment in culture and wanting to challenge it.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Eric Benjamin Ham | Photographer Terrence Malick’s film “The Tree of Life” has been one of the most influential works of art for me and my spiritual journey.⁣ ⁣ The film is epic, and delicate, as it takes the viewer from the beginning of time to the end of time. It explores the complexities of grief, family, and faith, all-the-while maintaining a message of grace and forgiveness.⁣ ⁣ Through its visual style, direction, and narrative, film has greatly informed the way that I create, perceive the world, relate to God. After countless viewings, I believe it to be a masterpiece.⁣</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Michael Bonikowsky | Writer Aaron Weiss, lyricist and frontman of the post-hardcore band mewithoutYou, has been my companion and fellow pilgrim on my artistic and spiritual journey since I discovered the band in my first year of university. He put words to my longing for connection, to know and be known by others and by God and I scrawled them in my journal and on the walls of my rented apartment in permanent marker. He When I listened to mewithoutYou, I wanted to write. I wanted to speak as honestly and fearlessly as he did, to lay bare my own wounds and doubts and fears, to lay it out beneath the sky and trust that perfect love would cast out fear. Our paths have diverged, both artistically and spiritually, but I still listen to Aaron Weiss and mewithoutYou nearly every time I sit down to write. Though it’s unclear whether he would still call himself a Christian, he has set the standard for Christian poetry to me: that it must tell the truth, no matter how painful, if it is to being an acceptable sacrifice of praise.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Eric Ordway | Potter Robert Turner (1913-2005) was one of the first ceramic artists that my mentors directed me to research when I told them that I wanted to make clay vessels that were about faith and spirituality. Tuner showed me that a classically trained functional potter could change the clay from simple vessels into a search of higher ideals and abstract expression. Turner's life and work inspired me to continue my pursuit of searching for quiet spaces, the source of creativity, and the pursuit of good form. I have the deepest thanks to Tuner and other ceramic artists that have gone before me in my search of beholding the Creator's likeness in my life and art.</image:caption>

I didn’t share them with anyone because I felt like it was a vulnerable part of me that was secret and safe. Vincent Van Gogh has always been an artist that I’ve felt connected to in a way where he created what he dreamed. His art showed me that you didn’t have to follow rules; you just create what you are passionate about. He taught me to be bold and to show the world all the small details that sometimes gets lost in this forever changing life.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Shonette Reed | Writer I spent the second half of my elementary school education in an after school program. With two working parents, it was important to them that my brothers and I were afforded experiences that were beneficial to us. So, I read. I read The House on Mango Street by Sandra Cisneros and A Light in the Attic and Where The Sidewalk Ends by Shel Silverstein. These were all books that enabled me to try writing in the fourth grade. Books that offered me the chance to see how these writers viewed other people and the happenings of life.⁣⁣⁣ ⁣ As a Christian, writing has allowed space for me to explore and sit with my emotions; it has allowed me to navigate the tough parts of my own story. And through that, I am able to hold the stories of others with more care. It is a constant meeting with God for me. ⁣⁣⁣</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Charis Wong | Photographer⁣ ⁣ I recently graduated from University of Toronto's Voice Performance Program, and for a time was considering continuing into a Masters in the same field. During that time I thought a lot about the nature of art and music, namely the question, “is it necessary?” ⁣ ⁣ I felt that the career path I had chosen didn’t have the same weight as other professions—a doctor saves lives, a singer can only sing. In fear, I questioned whether God could use my small offering for His purpose. It was not until a dear friend of mine pointed to scripture that I remembered God’s love for his people manifests itself partly in the good gifts He gives, and none of these gifts are without purpose. why, apart from a God who is beautiful and who loves beauty, would He command the making of ornate and intricate designs of pomegranates and flowers to decorate His temple? Our God rejoices over us with loud singing, and we respond with worship in song—He delights in our singing, our designing, our painting. Our desire for beauty is God-given, not to gratify ourselves, but to drive us to look at His perfection, and glorify Him. His image is the most beautiful, the most desirable, the most satisfying. ⁣ ⁣ Psalm 27:4 says, “One thing have i asked of the Lord, that will I seek after: that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to gaze upon the beauty of the Lord and to inquire at his temple."</image:caption>

One particularly holy moment was an evening during a holiday with friends over 10 years ago. I was playing and singing with others when I began to see colours and shapes coming out of me. I felt taken over, which is something that I’ve only felt a few times in that way in my life since, and I suddenly began to hear words being spoken to me that I would repeat in melody. It was totally spontaneous, beautiful and honestly quite overwhelming. That experience left a mystical imprint on my understanding of song and has shaped a lot of both my work and spirituality since.</image:caption>

Being made in His image and likeness means that we bare His traits, and so following in the Lord’s creative path for me is truly what makes me feel most aligned with His heart, when I get to share in the same creative likeness. As for artistic inspiration, two street photographers that I’ve been constantly intrigued by are Vivian Maier &amp; Joe Greer in the way they capture people &amp; moments in the most raw &amp; pure sense.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Walter Cabal | Writer I have a medical condition called Dysthymia, the subsequent depression can leave me existentially helpless and blind from day today. It’s in the silky, beautiful dissonance of ‘never having’ found in Wong Kar Wai’s films where I accepted what falls through the holes in our hands; from the sandpaper textures in Stray From The Path‘s screaming songs that I learned that anger’s fire still emits light when we feel the need to throw tables at injustice, and it’s from the incredibly quiet and alone poems of poet Mary Oliver that I learned that prayer and poetry are made of the same spirit; guided by the same helper. If all scripture is God breathed, then I believe art has taught me that anything with life giving breath in it - is a kind of scripture. When I allow art’s dissonance to rub saliva and dirt in my eyes - somehow I begin to see.</image:caption>
