Sacred Architecture: The Creed in Stone, Light and Color
Man not only possesses a soul, but a body. Recognizing this, the Church understands that Christ’s truth must attract not only the mind, but also the senses. She does this by surrounding the faithful with beauty, for beauty ravishes the senses and leads to wonder. Sacred beauty leads to wonder at the Supernatural. So, it is that Church constructs beautiful Churches, that their beauty might reflect the beauty of the Son of God. This series will explore the reason why some buildings are called sacred. It will then look at the two thousand years of the Church’s life and observe how the churches she built trumpet the Glorious Majesty of Christ.
