4. Pursuing Christ. Creating Art: Exploring Life at the Intersection of Faith and Creativity by Gary Molander
This book is written for people who are living in the intersection of the Christian faith, and the creation of art. By their nature, artists look at a life of faith differently, and that unique journey warrants an exploration of what it means to be a Christ-follower and an artist. The book intentionally veers away from tips and techniques and formulas, while concentrating on the journey, the mystery, and the heart.
5. Sound, Lighting and Video: A Resource for Worship by Brad Herring
This book tackles the integration and use of light, sound and video for houses or worship. Connect with more people in ways you never thought possible by learning: integrate sound, lighting and video together from the ground up for easy application.
