Bausch\u003c\/b\u003e (Author)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePeople come to worship spaces expecting something to happen. They want to be fully engaged in an experience that stimulates their hearts and minds. They want to hear afresh the sacred stories that bring them together and bring meaning to their lives, and they want to feel renewed as they return to their world. Feeding Imaginations shows preachers and congregational leaders how to bring more visual arts into worship, not only through the use of projected imagery, but through developing awareness of the architecture of the holy space in which they gather. Growing out of many years of producing multimedia worship services, leading small group tours to world-class art museums and churches, and studying the architecture of sacred spaces, the author offers practical suggestions for clergy and laity to engage the full creative energies of their congregation in their worship space in service of their central mission.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Rev.
