While the average person rarely sees it, the visual arts play a subtle yet profound role in the teaching and formation of faith, both for individuals and religious communities. The Substance of Things Seen explores the intersection of art and faith, offering thoughtful reflections on the way art functions in Christian life and practice. Highly readable and featuring instructive illustrations, this book is meant to engage church leaders as well as artists in constructive conversation about the critical role that art can play in the renewal of Christian education, worship, and study. It also challenges anyone who thinks the arts are only of marginal importance to the religious life. Robin Jensen considers here a broad range of topics relevant to Christian faith and culture, including the construction of sacred space, the use of art in worship and spiritual formation, the way that visual art interprets sacred texts, and the power and danger of art from a historical and contemporary perspective.Binding Type: Paperback

Nice Lightweight Blanket
Color: Light Camel, Size: King(108"x90")
I bought this because my winter blanket is too heavy for the summer. I'm a hot sleeper and have to have the temperature at 68 at night because the bedroom is upstairs above a garage and it gets warm. This blanket is very soft and not thick and I don't get hot. I have a queen size bed but I bought a king size so it looks more like a bedspread. It doesn't hang down far on one side but that is the side that people don't see so that's fine. If you like a blanket on the thinner side yet still warm enough, you will like this.

Bright color & true to size
Color: Red, Size: Twin(60"x80")
I ordered red. Color was vibrant although it has a touch of Orange - not the deep red I thought I would get. Funky chemical smell when I opened it - it went away after I spread it out for a few hours. It's soft with hemmed edges. A little thin but OK for the bed I ordered it for. Price was right & I would probably order additional colors if warranted in the future. It arrived quick.

Cozy Blanket Burrito….awesome!
Color: Brown, Size: King(108"x90")
The king size chocolate brown fleece blanket has quickly become my go-to for comfort and style, making it a must-have in my home. It feels like being wrapped in a cloud—if clouds were soft, warm, and available on Amazon. LOL Seriously, the softness is so delightful and drapes perfectly over my king-sized bed, ensuring I stay warm and cozy during those chilly nights, or when my husband tries to steal the covers. Plus, the rich chocolate brown color adds a touch of sophistication to my bedroom, making it look like I've stepped straight out of a home decor magazine—if only my life were so stylish! It also cleverly hides pet hair, so I'm not living in a fur-tastic disaster zone. After multiple washes, it’s still holding up like a champ, remaining soft and pilling-free. In short, this blanket is the perfect blend of warmth and humor—it's not just a blanket; it's a lifestyle choice. Highly recommended for anyone who loves snuggling, practicality, and a bit of style—because let’s be honest, we all need a little extra warmth in life, especially when doing the classic “blanket burrito” on the couch!
