Leen wrote many books. Why? In many cases it started quite negative: attacks from Christians, like: Visual art is forbidden by God, Rockmusic is from the devil. A reborn Christian will not dance, etc. Most came from ignorant believers, some came from well educated pastors So how to answer those attacks? With harsh critique or with good studies, explaining the situations in love. And this was always done. What is the status after 40 years? All those fights have been won, as never a person was attacked but the arguments. And besides counter arguments, more important is to reveal the biblical foundations for all the arts, the biblical mandate to be salt and light, to be creators of culture, to influence cultures.<\/p>\n
