Belief in providence is both necessary and impossible, absurd but deeply human. It is not required of Christians formally by the creeds, but it is required of them by their daily prayer. Central to Christian prayer is the belief that God acts, that he has a purpose not only for the whole creation but for the individual, and that if individuals bring their concerns to God, God will make a difference. But how does this difference come about? How is it possible to find evidence of the activity of God in the world around us and in our own lives. What criteria, what models, can we use? The image used of God here, after much discussion of the problems of providence when thought of in connection with either God or human beings, is that of the theatre director, particularly the theatre director exemplified by Peter Brook in his famous book The Empty Space. In this perspective God can be present as one whose job it is to evoke talents, skills and.capabilities people did not know they had. God is given a supremely active and creative role, and one which does not destroy, or manipulate, human autonomy. And in this perspective, men and women are given hope, that they will not find love's labours lost.

Christian theatre has rich roots, from ancient Hebrew dramas to medieval plays, but where does it fit in today's media-saturated society? Performing the Sacred is a fascinating dialogue between a theologian and theatre artist, offering the first full-scale exploration of theatre and theology. The authors illuminate the importance of live performance in a virtual world, of preserving the ancient art form of storytelling by becoming the story. Theologically, theatre reflects Christianity's central doctrines--incarnation, community, and presence--enhancing the human creative experience and simultaneously engaging viewers on multiple levels. This Engaging Culture series title will be a key volume for those interested in theatre as well as drama practitioners, worship leaders, and culture makers.

John Calvin saw this world as God’s theater where his glory is always on display. Just as “day and night pour forth speech,” the universe and history are not silent either; they tell the glory of God. Reflecting on over 500 years of Calvin’s legacy, John Piper and this book’s other contributors invite us to join Calvin in the theater of God. Stemming from the Desiring God 2009 National Conference, this volume includes chapters by Julius Kim, Douglas Wilson, Marvin Olasky, Mark Talbot, Sam Storms, and John Piper. It touches on topics such as Calvin’s life, the Christian meaning of public life, sin and suffering, the joy of the last resurrection, and Jesus Christ as the dénouement of God’s story. Editors John Piper and David Mathis, along with the contributors, make John Calvin’s Christ-exalting perspective on the glory of God accessible to today’s readers. Both Calvinists and other evangelicals interested in the life and work of Calvin will find these essays refreshing and instructive, leading to a robust understanding of the world as the theater of God.
