Résumé:

These essays are an invitation to build the promised kingdom, allowing the grace of God into our hearts and in our spaces.
The essays in Building from Belief focus on Catholic church architecture and invite those who are involved in the creation of worship space to be "the world's memory of what beauty looks like, and what sanctity feels like." Includes eight pages of full-color photographs with black-and-white photographs and illustrations throughout.
