What is it about a piece of music that can leave us breathless? How is it that a movie ushers us into another person's life so convincingly that our stomach sinks at their fear, our eyes dampen at their sorrow?
Art is an amazing thing. It communicates without announcing itself. It draws us into the experience of a lesson rather than helping us analyze it. It moves us.
North Harbor places considerable value in the arts. We weave the arts through services in such a way that a carefully chosen song gives voice to what you were just thinking, so that an image on a video screen makes the most important point of a teaching, so that worshipping God and learning about Him become an experience rather than an exchange of information.
We can do no less for the God who made our sun, who paints with its light every evening... don't you think? |
