While the average person rarely sees it, the visual arts play a subtle yet profound role in the teaching and formation of faith, both for individuals and religious communities. The Substance of Things Seen explores the intersection of art and faith, offering thoughtful reflections on the way art functions in Christian life and practice.

Highly readable and featuring instructive illustrations, this book is meant to engage church leaders as well as artists in constructive conversation about the critical role that art can play in the renewal of Christian education, worship, and study. It also challenges anyone who thinks the arts are only of marginal importance to the religious life. Robin Jensen considers here a broad range of topics relevant to Christian faith and culture, including the construction of sacred space, the use of art in worship and spiritual formation, the way that visual art interprets sacred texts, and the power and danger of art from a historical and contemporary perspective.

Yummy Blueberries I Eat Daily
Size: 1 PT
These are good and rarely have any mold on them. They are in good condition and taste yummy. They usually last for about a week and have a wonderful taste. I enjoy them.

Always the best quality, sweet and delicious, no bad berries in this bunch!
Size: 1 PT
I love these blueberries, they are so sweet and fresh, I eat them like candy, lol. These are not always on home delivery, so I don't buy all the time, but, I love it when Amazon excludes them from "fresh" delivery, I could eat these all day. I never liked blueberries much because of mushy, over-ripe, quality, and these are ALWAYS DELICIOUS!

Flavorful and good quality
Size: 1 PT, Size: 1 PT
Flavorful, big, and overall good quantity! Out of 2 pints, maybe 3 berries were squished... which is better than most grocery stores I've experienced. I wasn't sure what to expect from Amazon delivery blueberries, especially for the amazing price of $0.79 per pint. They were delivered in an insulated foil-lined paper grocery bag with a frozen bottled water inside to keep them cool. The pints were closed with rubber bands around them to minimize spills. I opened the bags within a few minutes of delivery so I cannot say how cold it would stay if I didn't bring it inside immediately, but the frozen bottled water was only slightly melted upon delivery so they had kept well.

Sweet, big and fresh
Size: 1 PT
I do almost ALL of my shopping on Amazon ! I live within 5 miles of a huge Amazon warehouse! I’m almost 70 and I know what I like! I realize I depend on the reviews when I make any purchases. Therefore… I am going to get better at reviewing and leaving my opinion on my purchases! These are the sweetest, biggest, freshest blueberries that I can find anywhere! I have picked up a popular brand on occasion when in my favorite grocery stores and they are smaller, tart and go bad too quick. Treat yourself and buy these blueberries from Amazon fresh!
