Abstract

The purpose of this project was to help congregations and pastors become more aware of and intentional about the impact of the theology of the visual and material objects within the worship space, focusing specifically on small rural churches and their communities. The author used surveys and interviews to ascertain the meaning images held not only for the individual members but also for pastors, visitors, and the congregation as an entity. The project results suggest that pastors need to be open to dialogue with the congregation on the theological impact of images and material objects.
