Who we are

poiema has come about for several reasons. For me, poiema was the focus of a paper I completed for a session of the DMin program I am enrolled in during the summer of 2011. If you wish to read some of the ecclesiologcal foundations for poiema, click here.

The Artists’ Prayer

The Artists’ Prayer (by Bonnie Grove)

Perfect Artist Creator
The One who set us all in motion
And gives us purpose
We pray that You will inhabit us in a new way
Soften our calloused attitudes
Supersede our post-modern ideologies
Crack us open to bloom as if resurrected

We concede our limited vision
Still larger than we have the ability to express,
To Your vision of the restoration of all things to Yourself

Transform our art

Speak, Creator of all
Through the fragments of our art
That we may see our rightful place inside your mosaic
And in seeing, become who we already are in Christ
Perfect in us the art of imitating Jesus
The One who entered into humanity’s depths and poured Himself out
A living sacrifice

Amen
