Publisher Description: The architect who designs a church is the shepherd of space, and church architecture, as part of the visual arts, can communicate where words fail. If one wants to translate the Gospel into another culture, both contextualization and indigenization would strongly suggest the need to use the vernacular in the architectural elements that attempt to substantiate in a church building both the Christian message, the Gospel, as well as its ecclesiology. |
