A Conversation on Bad Christian Art and the Reality of Life

Justin Taylor posted a video of a conversation on bad Christian art.  This "art" includes paintings and music and the discussion speaks of the message of bad Christian art compared to the reality of the cross and the reality of our life.  Scripture is more rated R than many Christians would like to admit and much of the bad Christian art ignores this reality.  (Example: Thomas Kincaid art which portrays a sweet little cottage in surreal lighting giving the impression of complete solace and goodness.)  To view this conversation, go here.  It is worth the ten minutes of viewing.
