You Know the Way is a fitting tribute to the memory of a great teacher who brought us comfort and joy when we were disturbed, but who was also fearless in disturbing us when he thought we were too comfortable. In this way, his homilies will continue to inspire us. — Don Klene Steve always questioned himself and challenged himself to grow and become a better Christian and a better human being. His preaching was just a simple sharing of the questions he asked himself. He spoke as one human to other humans, friends and companions on the journey, all of us struggling to grow and become our better selves. — Janice Braun The times in the last 35 years that I spent with Steve in the deaconate, he impressed me very much. But mostly the non-deaconate instances of being witness to the truth and violations of the Gospel by those in society that should uphold it are what I remember and cherish. This is the real deaconate, this spirit of God that I look for and Steve had it. — A note written by fellow Deacon after Steve’s death
In Crying for a Vision, British-born poet, musician and performance artist Steve Scott offers a challenge to artists and a manifesto for the arts. This new edition includes an introduction and study guide, four newly-collected essays and an interview with the author. Steve Scott is the author of Like a House on Fire: Renewal of the Arts in a Post-modern Culture and The Boundaries. "Steve Scott is a rare individual who combines a deep love and understanding of Scripture with a passion for the arts." -Steve Turner, author of Jack Kerouac: Angelheaded Hipster. "Steve Scott links a number of fields of inquiry that are usually perceived as unrelated. In doing so he hopes to open wider possibilities for Christians in the arts, who may perhaps be relieved to find that, in many ways, they were right all along." -Rupert Loydell, author of The Museum of Light.
