Find God in Creative Expression in “ONEING: Art and Spirituality”
How does art mirror contemplative prayer? The Center for Action and Contemplation is excited to announce the newest issue of our biannual journal, “ONEING: Art and Spirituality” — now available. In this Spring issue, readers are invited to explore artistic expression as a deeply spiritual act that invites us into greater clarity, community, and Divine union.
Art is deeply rooted in shared lived experiences as well as the imagination. Art reveals culture, mirrors society’s vulnerabilities, celebrates our humanity, and is truthful.
Lourdes Bernard
