In the midst of studying theology at Bible college, my physical copy of Ekstasis was a bridge between the academic world of researching and writing essays && the path of creativity I saw myself pursuing in the future. It was something tangible that I could take hold of which meshed the two worlds together into something really beautiful. The Ekstasis Instagram was an encouragement to me, especially during that particular season, of those who were in the same position of seeking to create meaningful and yet beautiful things which point not to ourselves, but to He who created us in a way that honours the beauty of all that He has and continues to create.
