Welcome to ArtSpace
“Art and Faith—in church and in life.”
“Because we know God as both our Creator and Redeemer,
we seek to display his beauty and grace in our life and work.”
—Philip Graham Ryken, Art for God’s Sake
We believe that God has given everyone the gift of creativity. Whether you are a painter, poet, musician, or gardener—you are welcome. It’s a space where we share our work and our lives with one another, and with College Church.
If you are interested in joining our community, where we together learn more about art and faith, please take a minute to fill out our “getting to know you” survey and let us know of your creative interests and the ways that we can better serve our artistic community. Artists of all ages, levels and disciplines are welcome.

To love at all is to be vulnerable.
The unlikely true life love story between noted British Christian author C.S. (Jack) Lewis (Chronicles of Narnia) and American writer Joy Gresham, who happens to be both Jewish and divorced. Before Joy and her son unexpectedly drop into Jack’s life, he led a comfortable bachelor existence, teaching, writing, and lecturing at Oxford. Once Joy appears, things dramatically change. He is forced to approach everything, including his personal faith in God, from his heart, not his mind.
