DESCRIPTION
An exploration of theological concepts expressed in Christian liturgical art, architecture, and worship space. Using a historical approach, the diverse forms, contexts, and world views that have shaped ritual, visual objects, and worship space from the early church to the present are investigated, each with the purpose of understanding the underlying theology of the worshipping community's understanding of the sacred, their relationship to God, and their relationship to each other.
