With the Border Crossers series, we are highlighting key Christians (many who are artists) who are impacting culture with their lives and work. The arts represent one of the few areas in our society where people can come together to share an experience even if they see the world in radically different ways.
The important thing is not that we agree about the experience that we share, but that we consider it worthwhile sharing an experience at all.
In this sense, the community created by arts and culture is potentially a great source of inspiration for politicians and activists who work to transcend the polarizing populism and stigmatization of other people, positions, and worldviews that is sadly so endemic in public discourse today.
The Border Crossers series is meant to capture and enlarge the latent energy of art, artists, and other creative catalysts to impact the greater culture.
The Border Crossers series is a collaboration with Windrider Productions.
