In today’s technology-driven society, there is a growing need to develop effective methods for teaching history, media literacy, biblical literacy and art history. To illustrate this, the author analyses the artwork in the dome at St. Paul’s Cathedral in London. The author suggests that combining art and text – for example, scriptural art and scriptural texts – can be a powerful tool for developing an understanding of history, literature and the Bible. Through studying Biblical art and scripture, educators can support the development of the mental processes of children and youth. Integrating narrative text with narrative art can significantly improve media education and offer a framework for exploring different symbolic forms and their meanings. The author concludes by identifying three media ecology principles that can be used to evaluate narrative art and narrative text.
