Scope and content
Item consists of a typescript of a sermon given at the opening of the Monasticism and the Arts Conference on February 29, 1980. It is based on Philippians 3:20-21 and 6-8, and Mark 8:22-26. Nouwen wants us to recognize, like the monks Anthony and Benedict, that we are blind and in need of healing. We look at art hoping to see the face of God in the expression of those who gave their talents in art, music, architecture to reflect a vision beyond what we see.
