Reviving

the Imagination

Creative culture by Christianity Today

Within the pages of Ekstasis, we exhibit arts and letters that reflect the depths of Christian life.

In a clamorous and contentious age, we view Ekstasis as a kind of digital cathedral, a sanctuary from the noise, a place that captures our attention through loving art and luminous words.

Ekstasis publishes work that slants toward the triumphant and glorious aspects of life in Christ, framed through the arts and literature. Ekstasis is based in the work of Beautiful Orthodoxy, as defined by Christianity Today.

ἔκστασις noun (mysticism) 

The state of being beside oneself
or rapt out of oneself in awe or worship.
