“It was Milton’s Satan and Dante’s Inferno that made them two of the most powerful Christian artists of all time. Because they understood evil and did not shrink from it, their depictions of goodness had power. In order to be redemptive, art has to convince us there is something real from which we need redeeming. | Conversely, much secular art in the last half-century illustrates confusion and pain brilliantly but provides no antidote.” Eric MetaxasTo End All Christian Films (Christianity Today)
