A Crisis of Faith--An American Dilemma - February 24th 7pm The west has seen tremendous and measurable advancements in technology over the past century. Unfortunately, these advances have occurred within a spiritual vacuum and as a culture we have developed a large and dangerous blind spot. We have evolved, technologically, so much faster than we have spiritually that we face a very clear and present danger; either we will spontaneously destroy each other with weapons capable of the ultimate horror, or we will continue to die a slow spiritual death, falling deeper into the empty void of egoism and material idolatry. In A Crisis of Faith, noted theologians and authors address the state of "spiritual crisis" the west finds itself in. Because we are addressing this issue from a western perspective, there will be Judeo-Christian overtones. However, the program does not feel "religious" as it attempts to move beyond religious casting and address our topic from a universally spiritual perspective. A Crisis of Faith has an edge to it, as well as a sense of urgency. The continuous stream of imagery master impressionists such as Chagall, Picasso, Van Gogh, Munch will come to life with the music that lurks behind it. Mirroring the subject and rhythm of the program, the soundtrack is powerful, diverse, challenging and sometimes disturbing. Drawing from the work of The Doors, Gabrielle Roth & the Mirrors, Jimi Hendrix, Jean-Luc Ponti and others, A Crisis of Faith attempts to draw the viewer into a space where they can experience the depths of the struggle we are in. read more about A Chrisis of Faith -- An American Dilemma
