What is Neo-Renaissance?
The term renaissance literally means to be reborn. It is a rebirth or revival of culture, skills, or learning forgotten or previously ignored. Neo means new. Thus, neo-renaissance is a new renaissance or coming change beginning through theatre and the arts.
In European history, the Renaissance era marked the end of the middle ages. It was a classical revival that lasted from about the 14th through 16th centuries. It was a time of intellectual activity and a time for major cultural and artistic change. Individualism and secularism had new importance, which led to the Protestant Reformation. Subsequently, the Holy Roman Catholic Church initiated a Counter Reformation to combat the increasing strength of Protestantism in Europe.
For Yehoshua’s (Jesus’) body and bride, Neo-Renaissance marks the beginning of new era and present-day time for change. It is a time for change in our thinking, understanding, ideas, and possibilities. It is a time to reveal hidden things of darkness, and a time to be set free from them. It is a time to let go of our manmade doctrines and traditions; and a time to realign ourselves with the Way and culture our Lord introduced. It is a time to walk in perfect love and for the revival of the centuries past Apostolic Ministry yet in a new and even greater way!
