Art and the Bible by Francis A. Schaeffer is a concise yet profound exploration of the relationship between Christianity and artistic expression. Schaeffer argues that art is not only permissible for Christians but also essential, as it reflects the creative nature of God. Divided into two essays—"Art in the Bible" and "Some Perspectives on Art"—the book offers a biblical foundation for the arts, emphasizing that the Bible itself contains and values artistic elements such as poetry, song, and visual craftsmanship, notably in the construction of the tabernacle.

Schaeffer challenges the modern Christian tendency to separate the sacred from the secular, insisting that all of life, including art, should be lived under the lordship of Christ. He encourages Christians to pursue excellence in artistic endeavors, not merely as a means of evangelism but as a legitimate form of worship and cultural engagement. This work has become a foundational text for those seeking to integrate faith with creativity and aesthetics.
