<p><figure><img class="craftbook" src="http://jeremykidwell.info/images/theology_of_craft-medium.jpg" align="right" width=300px alt="The Theology of Craft and the Craft of Work"></figure>An important reconceptualisation is taking place in the way people express creativity, work together, and engage in labour; particularly with the rise of the maker movement and craft work. But is this a new phenomenon? In <em>The Theology of Craft</em> I explore the Hebrew bible and Greek New Testament in conversation with other ancient craft narratives to see whether there is a model for good work embedded there. Through an examination of themes such as agency, aesthetics, sociality, skill, and the material culture of work, I argue that the church (or new temple) is both the product and the site of moral work and furthermore that Christian worship provides a moral context for work.
