From the beginning of history art and religion have been intertwined within culture. However in our modern day society it seems as though art and religion have gone their separate ways. There is a current trend among many young church leaders to bridge that gap and restore the arts to churches worldwide.

Chicago and Phoenix are two cities who have enjoyed tremendous growth in recent years.  Marked growth in both these booming metro areas has created vibrant arts communities and hugely untapped resources with local artists.  While there are many Chicago churches who hold fast to modern church tradition, several Chicago churches www.chicagochurches.com are seeking to bring the arts to life within their services and in their church communities.

Many Phoenix churches are also finding renewed inspiration within the arts. Utilizing artists within their weekly worship services to paint or sculpt or featuring the work of local artists on display in their buildings. By whatever means possible church leaders are seeking to bring the arts alive in Phoenix churches www.phoenixchurches.com once again.

Those who find their faith in the ultimate Creator (artist) can find hope that the partnership between the arts and churches may live on.
