Apologetics to The Glory of God

From childhood on, something or Someone has called us on a journey of the heart. It is a journey full of intimacy, adventure, beauty, and more than a little danger.

‘Kailash’ is a new collection of work from Florian Fricke, leader of Popol Vuh, seminal group in the German rock scene of the 1970s (Can, Faust, Amon Duul, Ash Ra Tempel, Tangerine Dream) and creators of classic soundtracks to the films of Werner Herzog (‘Aguirre The Wrath Of God’, ‘Nosferatu’ and ‘Fitzcaraldo’, among others). ‘Kailash’ brings together essential and unreleased piano recordings, together with Fricke’s travelogue film ‘Kailash’, about his spiritual voyage to Tibet’s 22,000 foot Kailash mountain, ‘Throne Of The Gods’ and the accompanying soundtrack album to this film.

From the earliest period of its existence, Christianity has been recognized as the "religion of the cross."
