There is no home for Christian arts criticism. We’re building it.
Contemporary arts criticism and culture
from a modern Christian perspective.
What we do
Three things, every week. We cover Christian artists working right now that almost no one else is covering, including the ones still underground who are making the Christian art of tomorrow. We report on artists you already know: musicians, filmmakers, actors whose faith isn’t part of their public image, and the real connection between their work and their belief, verified before we publish it, not assumed. And we write honestly about what it actually takes to make art as a Christian today: the discipline, the doubt, and the practical questions no one else is answering.
That’s the whole newsletter. Not empty encouragement, and not criticism that pretends faith doesn’t matter to the work. Serious writing about both, every week.
A record you can check
We’ve written about artists like Sam Gellaitry, Daniel Caesar, and Raye: musicians whose Christian faith is real but rarely part of their public story. We’ve also written about artists most people have never heard of at all. Over 11,000 people follow this work on Instagram. The newsletter is where it’s done in full: complete interviews, complete essays, and the reporting a short video can’t hold.
“Your findings have helped me find amazing music for my walks with Him.”

Readers who’ve already joined as founding members
The Art Newsletter is still in its founding years. Every paid subscriber, at any tier, is currently listed among our founding members and helps shape what this publication becomes.
Why subscribe now
Everything we publish starts free to read, so anyone can read it, share it, and react to it while it’s new. After a week or two it becomes part of our growing archive, and that full record of reporting is what subscribers keep access to.
But the real reason to subscribe is simpler than that. This work takes real time and real money: finding artists, reaching out, verifying their story, and writing it properly. We’re a small, Christian-run team doing something almost no one else on the planet is doing, and every subscription is what lets us pay the people doing that work instead of squeezing it in for free on the side. Pick the tier that fits how you want to support it.
