In these lectures I heard a call to give closer attention to the address of the Bible to my imagination, calling me to repent and lament, and to give closer attention to the presence and pain of my neighbors as communicated through their art.

Los Angeles artist Lynn Aldrich, with the help of Michelle McCreary, the Brehm Center’s Administrative Assistant, installed three brightly colored art works in Fuller’s David Allan Hubbard Library.
