The world we live in wants to balance global digital connection with respect for cultural diversity. Some talk about `the death of distance' but others talk about `the death of secularism' as traditional values rub shoulders with post modern philosophies in cyberspace.

We live in an age when most of the Christians, and therefore most of the Christian artists live in what some call`the two thirds' or `Majority World.'

Their concerns and questions, are, in many ways, THE concerns and questions for us today.

We are coming to understand the vital role of story, symbol, image and metaphor in giving form to the expression and communication of our deepest values. This is true in our own community, as well as those communities we are reaching out to, or are reaching out to us.

We believe in artistic excellence. We also believe in building bridges between different cultural traditions.

We believe that art, life, idea and practice are woven together in different ways in different cultures. We want to learn from, and be enriched by our dialogue with each other.
