The Organ of Meaning: Understanding Imagination and Using it for the Glory of God - Softcover

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Do you remember the feeling of wonder when, with a wink and a smile, Willy Wonka sang about magic? What Gene Wilder didn't tell us is that imagination not only flows through the Chocolate Factory- it runs through the streets of London too. We often pit imagination against reason. You can have your head in the clouds, or you can have your feet on the ground. You can't have both. But what if imagination wasn't what we thought it was? What if it's not incompatible with reason- in fact, what if they're fundamentally related? For the Christian, part of following God means our minds are renewed. Where does imagination play into that process? Should we embrace it as a tool, reject it as temptation, or ignore it as irrelevant? Join Andrew Ballard as he answers these questions by exploring the nature of imagination and how we as Christians can use it to glorify God.
