Spirituality in Photography

Prayer & Spiritual Formation

“Rather than skim, scan, tweet, and snap our lives, Philip Richter invites all of us to slow down, to savour, and to see with fresh eyes. In this delightfully accessible text, each chapter focuses on one aspect of photography, with simple practical tools and a path to spiritual discovery. Curiosity about how we frame or reframe images, how camera phones work, and how light and perspective relate to proportionality leads us in and beyond photography and deeper into our lives and world. Philip Richter gently guides and accompanies the reader in understanding the lenses of truth telling and telling stories. He illumines the importance of knowing the rules, breaking the rules and creating a rule of life in ordinary and everyday lives.’ Odette Lockwood-Stewart, Director, Community Engaged Learning, Pacific School of Religion, Berkeley, California ‘A book to help you use your phone to see, think, pray – and do. As someone who often feels disabled by photographic experts, I found it very enabling.”

The Wrath of God Satisfied?

Theology

“"Our understanding of the atonement affects our understanding of God. In this readable book Tom Stuckey reexamines the classic theories of the atonement and offers a fresh global perspective, weaving together big stories, Scripture, theory, and little stories. Read prayerfully, it will enrich our understanding, our worship, and our social action.”
