How the Promise of Splendor Changes Everything

Written by Philip Ryken

The world is full of beautiful things―the vibrancy of trees in fall, the joy of sitting around a table with family―but in our fallen world, many beautiful things have been turned into ugly distortions. How should Christians think about beauty in a world that is often ugly? 

In Beauty Is Your Destiny, Philip Ryken provides readers with an introduction to the theology and practice of beauty, striving to awaken a longing for beauty that he explains “can only be satisfied in the face of Jesus Christ.” Adapted from chapel messages given at Wheaton College, Ryken considers key topics on Christian thought―including the Trinity, the incarnation, sexuality, and racial diversity―through the lens of beauty, showing how beauty illuminates each of these biblical principles in our world today. 

  • Introduction to the Theology of Beauty: Great for college students, pastors, and small groups
  • Biblically Based: Examines how beauty is seen in Christian doctrines such as eternity, the church, and the crucifixion 

Paperback, 190 pages, notes, general index, Scripture index
