Our latest edition of FrontLine is called, “The God of Beauty.” Most of us probably have some idea of what beauty is, although we also probably don’t agree with each other on every assessment of beauty one might make. These disagreements lead some to conclude that beauty is entirely subjective, inside myself, basically “what I like.” This view can lead to some pretty bizarre ideas about what is beautiful… at least that’s my opinion!

Well, what if there were an objective standard of beauty? That would be helpful and might settle a few disagreements. That’s what this issue of the magazine is about.

We believe that God reveals the truth about beauty in the Bible. Our authors will help you think about this topic as the foundation for making wise decisions in our churches and homes. What kind of music, art, literature, etc. should grace our Christian environment?

Mark Herbster was the coordinating editor for this edition of FrontLine and he sat down with Don Johnson to talk about the whole magazine. We hope you enjoy the interview as well as upcoming interviews with our authors.

You can read Mark’s opening editorial at our blog, here. We are making this one a “freebie” – available to everyone.

As our interviews with the authors roll out, paying subscribers will have access to those articles right away. If you subscribe on the annual subscription rate, we will also include a subscription to the print magazine.
