This article explores how local arts provide a powerful and beautiful medium for conveying the Gospel across varied cultures, reaching people’s hearts through familiar expressions. It also introduces the role of ethnodoxology, which aids in understanding how Christians engage with God through their own cultural expressions. Ethnodoxologists encourage the use of local arts as a language of worship that aligns with biblical principles and deepens cultural connections. Through case studies from Africa, Asia, and Europe, this article demonstrates how Christians can foster unique local artistic expressions to enrich worship and encourage people to see their cultural heritage as a means of connecting with the gospel message.
