Richard Viladesau's book takes a look at an inviting topic that has come into increasing prominence in a number of fields lately--including theology. Theology and the Arts explores, in a timely and engaging manner, several aspects of the relations between theology and aesthetics, in both the pastoral and academic realms. The underlying motif of this work is that beauty is a means of divine revelation, and that art is the human mediation that both enables and limits its revelatory power. Using examples from music, pictorial art and rhetoric, the five chapters explore different aspects of the ways that art enters into theology and theology into art, both in pastoral practice, e.g., liturgical music, sacred art and preaching, and in the area of systematic reflection, where, Viladesau contends, art must be recognized as a genuine theological text. A reader-friendly feature of this work is the addition, after the central chapters, of a discography of illustrative musical works and lists of internet sights of sacred art and art history resources-a virtual museum--that will complement the text. These enhance the value of this well-written, provocative text. Although aimed at undergraduate theology students, it will certainly capture the interest of art students, pastoral ministers and anyone who appreciates the arts.

Not that Jack Black!
Size: 4 Piece Set
I bought this set assuming it was the actor/musician Jack Black’s skincare line. I figured a bearded celebrity would know all about quality beard care products. But actually it is not even named after a real person, it’s just a brand name. In fact, Jack Black the celebrity said he tried Jack Black products and they gave him a rash! Not a big deal though. I haven’t had such a reaction. The products smell fine, not overbearing, and seem to be working well. Cons: not exactly economical since it’s very small tubes. The beard oil pump is easy to overdo— Press too hard on the pump and you’ll end up with too much oil on your hands. A little goes a long way.

Never have I felt my beard this soft after using this beard oil…
Size: 4 Piece Set
I’m usually not the dude to leave a review on a product, but the second I hop out of the shower and tried the beard wash and beard oil, I was shocked. Out of all the other beard oils and beard wash products i’ve used, this has to be the best result so far. For the price, It can be expensive, sure. But it’s the only one you need. I don’t think i’ll ever go on a search for beard oil or wash ever again. This product is great!
