    Anastacia Plastinina
    “True creativity will always seek to solve a problem and present the move effective solution for the task at hand. That is why I would be very careful to call something creative (and art) when it is frivolous, vain, and without any problem-solving element. Everything else in the universe has a plan and purpose (Psalm 104:19; Jeremiah 29:11). How did it happen that we began to exalt "chasing-after-the-wind" creativity (adapted from Ecclesiastes 1:14), praising art and fashion simply for themselves. And how is this not idolatry?”

    Andrew Peterson
    “It's true that people need places to live, and I don't begrudge anyone the dream of owning a pretty house for their kids to grow up in—but I believe we need more than just houses. We need homes, and a home is more than just the four walls where we eat and sleep and watch Netflix. It's a place that shapes and gives meaning to our lives. We need Places with a capital P, places that honor the community's history, the sacredness of creation, and our basic human need for beauty and nature.”
