BELIEVER FOR ARTISTS: Pastor Kevin Chubb | NC
AOA NEWS
By Tahlib
This past May, the Baptist pastor of a North Carolina church decided to use the visual arts to inspire its members and the public to be more like Jesus. Under the leadership of Pastor Kevin Chubb, Cape Carteret Baptist Church held their first, "A Celebration of Art in the Church" exhibit and invited the public to view two new murals entitled "The Scarlet Cord" representing four principles that the church had been studying.
The four principles from Pastor Chubb's church program are: (1) Connecting with Jesus; (2) Becoming like Jesus; (3) Serving like Jesus; and (4) Sharing like Jesus. Both murals were created by portrait artist and 11-year congregation member, Ann Boyer LePere who said, “It is important that any church welcomes art.” LePere added, “We’re often very welcoming of music in churches but sometimes visual arts not so much. I applaud Cape Carteret for recognizing art.” Cape Carteret Baptist Church is located at 101 Anita Forte Drive in Cape Carteret, North Carolina.
The Alpha & Omega Project for Contemporary Religious Arts salutes Pastor Kevin Chubb as its second Believer For Artists.
***If you know a member of the American clergy who is working to bridge the artist vs. religious divide, please nominate them today!
