Liturgy and the Arts
by Albert Rouet
This is just a great book. An orthodox look at the subtle but powerful interplay between liturgy and art, surveying historical points of tension, calling for a reunion based in freedom. Rouet sees liturgy as a work of God's people meant to help create the image of Christ in worshippers, and that art is set free from it's god-like notions of autonomy when it seeks to serve that liturgical goal. If you see worship - and art - as call, change-agent, mystery, and presence, this book will help you navigate these deep waters.

Berrymans on Stage
Performances coming up for the Berryman family...Amy, after battling a cold and potential loss of voice, is on to play a holocaust survivor today in a HS one-act production in Roosevelt's annual Dramafest (2:30 p.m. at the school auditorium)...the voice is back (yahoo!)...Daniel's production - he plays a gangster, I think - is on tomorrow. They will both be appearing in Seattle Public Theatre's Christmas production of The Best Christmas Pageant Ever, which both Nana and Aunt Jody will get to see since they're both traveling up here for Christmas.
Oh, man, they're going to be impressed...
