Past and Future Church Buildings
People have always felt the need to worship and believe in a higher power. From worshiping the nature phenomena to worshiping gods, they soon felt a certain need to build a structure that would make the connection between the believers and the worshiped. From old temples to the first church buildings, mankind expressed not only belief but also art. Every culture has its own way of building their churches. You can even talk about a specific design if you come to think of certain religious differences. But in all the cases there is a church designer involved.
The common church buildings are constructed in the shape of a cross. This is the main architecture style for churches that were constructed that way. There is a main hall that holds the chairs or benches for the believers, a hall that has two small rectangles at one end, and continues further with the altar, another rectangle that completes the cross. Usually, there is a dome above the altar or even the whole place, depending on the church type and also on the way the church designer designed its plan from the beginning. But the shape is a matter of local belief and individual theology. You can find circular churches, octagonal shaped ones or the kind of church architecture that is completed by a tall spire.
In case we are talking about communities that have insufficient funds to build a new church, we will come across building conversions into a house of God. In this case there will not be a planned shape, but an internal and external renovation. And when it comes to design, you have to get the opinion of a church designer, a professional that will keep in mind everything about the congregation and include that in his renovation plans.
All the centuries-old church buildings are seen as historical monuments, and that is because all of them hold pieces of art and touches by the church designers of that time, as well as the art impressions of that period. There is no reason why new church buildings should not pass to the future generations the experience we developed so far. That is why it is so important to seek the advice of a church designer, a professional that will offer visual solutions and classic or futuristic points of view about how a church can represent more than a simple building where believers congregate.
Keeping in mind that the church represents the place that connects the believers with God, a church designer will make sure that the newly-built or renovated church will attract not only the regular worshipers but also new followers that might find in its design the peace and serenity a holy place should have.
So, even if the church is built out of concrete, wood or futuristic glass and steel, a professional church designer will make sure to combine all the elements in perfect harmony. That is why in case you make up your mind about funding or participating in the building, conversion or renovation of a church, you should get the help of a professional church designer.

Is it right to sell a visual art piece painting or drawing that was completed during worship at church?
Do you think it is biblically or morally wrong to do this? Many modern churches are integrating an "arts program in their worship time" is it wrong to sell these items?
I don't think its right...........but if you do or have a different side, please share your opinion. thanks!
The question should be is it right to have an art class during worship time
The fact that they would allow this to begin with makes no sense, but if they allow it then it should not be wrong to sell the work you are allowed to do there.You think it's wrong,but where does it say in the Bible that there shall be no art work during worship time ? It doesn't. Man makes up church rules anyway, not God. A good example for as far back as you can remember a man was not supposed to eat meat on Fridays.
Then one day the Pope says it is ok to eat meat on Fridays. He is just a man like you and I.
Whether it is moral or immoral, it should be left up to the individual.
