Description
Beauty is hard to describe, but easy to identify. It resides in expected
and unexpected places in our world. Beauty is present in our world in a variety
of forms. Yet while the average person might think about the reality of beauty from
time to time, few people would think about the source of beauty. Where does beauty
come from? Why is it here?
Several hundred years ago Jonathan Edwards did
some thinking of his own on this difficult subject. This volume explores his meditation
on the subject and lays out a Christian framework for understanding and experiencing
the beauty God has planted in His world.
Edwards found in the study of beauty
the person of God. Where Edwards saw beautiful images and acts, he saw a representation,
a small picture, of a reality too great to comprehend, a God too majestic to adequately
adore. He sets in motion a path of glory that begins with the Lord, moves to creation,
continues to the incarnation of Christ, moves to the church, and ascends to the
glory of heaven, where the Holy Trinity dwells.
Easily accessible and readable,
you do not need to be a scholar to enjoy these insights about Jonathan Edwards and
his writings.
