The church's role in supporting and encouraging the arts is also examined, focusing on the need for a robust artistic theology. The conversation raises questions about using art in worship and the potential pitfalls of using art to sell the church to the culture. The talk explores the role of art in worship and the church. They discuss the use of drama and visual arts in church services, the regulatory principle, and the potential pitfalls of misusing art. They emphasize the importance of understanding the purpose and motive behind using art in worship and the need to avoid gimmicks and self-idolatry.
