6A Daily News – Thursday, December 29, 2011 Pastimes Peter Mathios and St. Peter's Episcopal Church is hosting the lecture series Art and Architecture: Expressions of Faith, exploring how the Christ- ian faith has influenced art and architecture throughout history. Former art teacher and student of the Christian religion, Marvin Woodstrup will present an illustrat- ed depiction of how art reflects the Christian faith over the past 2,000 years entitled Reflections of the Christian Faith as Seen through the Great Masters. Woodstrup The lecture is scheduled for 5 p.m. Thursday, Jan. 5 at St. Peter's, on the corner of Jefferson and Elm streets in Red Bluff. Woodstrup will explore how the great masters created artwork to bring to life the stories of Christ and visions of the New Testament. Focusing on depictions of the Madon- na and child, images from wall frescos to tiny glazed ceram- ic pottery will be examined asking the questions: "How close is the artist's vision to that of reality?" and "How has art assisted mankind in interpreting faith and belief?" A light supper will be served in the Parish Hall prior to the lecture. Limited space, please RSVP by Tuesday, Jan. 3. This is a free presentation.

Entertain- Forks over knives examines the profound claim that most, if not all, of the degenerative diseases that afflict us can be controlled, or even reversed, by rejecting animal-based and processed foods. A free screening will be offered at 2 p.m. Saturday, Jan. 7, 2012 at 720 S. Jackson St. in Red Bluff. The major storyline traces the personal journeys of Dr. T. Colin Campbell, a nutritional biochemist from Cornell University, and Dr. Caldwell Esselstyn, a former top surgeon at the world-renowned Cleveland Clinic. Inspired by remarkable discoveries they made, these men conducted several groundbreaking studies. Their separate research led them to the same startling conclusion: degen- erative diseases like heart disease, type 2 diabetes and even several forms of cancer could almost always be prevented — and in many cases reversed — by adopt- ing a whole-foods, plant-based diet. The idea of food as medicine is put to the test.
