Living Theodrama is a fresh; creative introduction to theological ethics. Offering an imaginative approach through dialogue with theatrical theory and practice; Vander Lugt demonstrates a new way to integrate actor-oriented and action-oriented approaches to Christian ethics within a comprehensive theodramatic model. This model affirms that life is a drama performed in the company of God and others; providing rich metaphors for relating theology to everyday formation and performance in this drama. Different chapters explore the role of the triune God; Scripture; tradition; the church; mission; and context in the process of formation and performance; thus dealing separately with major themes in theological ethics while incorporating them within an overarching model. This book contains not only a fruitful exchange between theological ethics and theatre; but it also presents a promising method for interdisciplinary dialogue between theology and the arts that will be valuable for students and practitioners across many different fields.

2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. keeperBy Steve HerrmannThis is a great little book. It teaches the reader/viewer to "speak" the visual language. In one way it shows just how visually illiterate our culture is. even though visually saturated. but it accepts this shameful reality and takes the reader/viewer on a journey of learning how we "read images" - how they speak to us. It is a little book that reminds even seasoned designers and visual communicators of any kind of the basics. It is a good tiny refresher to have on the shelf. It is short. to the point. and right on. It tells you how we *feel* images. This book is good for everyone!... because we are all visual media consumers.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Incredibly interesting bookBy Kindle CustomerI loved it. Ms. Bang provides simple visual examples to her narrative explaining how and why we are impacted by pictures. I even did the exercises which are well worth the time and effort. I nice reflective reprieve from my normal to do list and they inspired greater curiosity.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. very interestingBy Customersuch an interesting book - note - i have never taken a design class but i thought this was very interesting and easy to understand
