You have to know how to talk, encourage and persuade others into doing the right things that can change or even save lives. Many leaders that we know or have heard of today have impacted many lives.

4.04 Religion influences art by bringing to the forefront of the artwork important principals and lessons that are taught in that specific religion. The Islamic example I selected is the dome of the Selimiye Mosque. The other work of art I have selected is Christ as the Good Shepherd from the Catacomb of Priscilla. Both of these works of art have elements specific to their religion.
