"I am very excited to host our first Summer Institute for the Performing Arts. As a performer in today's world, I find it invaluable to have a strong and unwavering Christian worldview. In addition to developing skills as a musician, this summer we will look closely at what the Bible says about art and examine how the world has distorted these principles in various aspects of music and film."
