      <image:caption>In a rich interpretive move, the prolific exegetical artist Chris Powers elides the “rending of the heavens” named in Isaiah 62:1 into the “tearing of the veil of the Temple” at Jesus’s death (ie Mark 15:38). Certainly, the rupture of the heavenly veil opened by Christ’s sacrifice on the Cross has the character of a response to the prophet’s plea, but to collapse the whole to the crucifixion misses three important ruptures: the Incarnation, the experience of revelation, and apocalyptic judgement. While these two dimensions are present in the Crucifixion, they importantly retain a color and character unique to their phenomenological qualities. Yet the image of rupture speaks beautifully to the unspeakable yearning we have for that day, when the work that God had done in Christ reaches its full manifestation in our lives, experience, and history.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>In a rich interpretive move, the prolific exegetical artist Chris Powers elides the “rending of the heavens” named in Isaiah 62:1 into the “tearing of the veil of the Temple” at Jesus’s death (ie Mark 15:38). Certainly, the rupture of the heavenly veil opened by Christ’s sacrifice on the Cross has the character of a response to the prophet’s plea, but to collapse the whole to the crucifixion misses three important ruptures: the Incarnation, the experience of revelation, and apocalyptic judgement. While these two dimensions are present in the Crucifixion, they importantly retain a color and character unique to their phenomenological qualities. Yet the image of rupture speaks beautifully to the unspeakable yearning we have for that day, when the work that God had done in Christ reaches its full manifestation in our lives, experience, and history.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>In a rich interpretive move, the prolific exegetical artist Chris Powers elides the “rending of the heavens” named in Isaiah 62:1 into the “tearing of the veil of the Temple” at Jesus’s death (ie Mark 15:38). Certainly, the rupture of the heavenly veil opened by Christ’s sacrifice on the Cross has the character of a response to the prophet’s plea, but to collapse the whole to the crucifixion misses three important ruptures: the Incarnation, the experience of revelation, and apocalyptic judgement. While these two dimensions are present in the Crucifixion, they importantly retain a color and character unique to their phenomenological qualities. Yet the image of rupture speaks beautifully to the unspeakable yearning we have for that day, when the work that God had done in Christ reaches its full manifestation in our lives, experience, and history.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>In a rich interpretive move, the prolific exegetical artist Chris Powers elides the “rending of the heavens” named in Isaiah 62:1 into the “tearing of the veil of the Temple” at Jesus’s death (ie Mark 15:38). Certainly, the rupture of the heavenly veil opened by Christ’s sacrifice on the Cross has the character of a response to the prophet’s plea, but to collapse the whole to the crucifixion misses three important ruptures: the Incarnation, the experience of revelation, and apocalyptic judgement. While these two dimensions are present in the Crucifixion, they importantly retain a color and character unique to their phenomenological qualities. Yet the image of rupture speaks beautifully to the unspeakable yearning we have for that day, when the work that God had done in Christ reaches its full manifestation in our lives, experience, and history.</image:caption>

While these two dimensions are present in the Crucifixion, they importantly retain a color and character unique to their phenomenological qualities. Yet the image of rupture speaks beautifully to the unspeakable yearning we have for that day, when the work that God had done in Christ reaches its full manifestation in our lives, experience, and history.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>In a rich interpretive move, the prolific exegetical artist Chris Powers elides the “rending of the heavens” named in Isaiah 62:1 into the “tearing of the veil of the Temple” at Jesus’s death (ie Mark 15:38). Certainly, the rupture of the heavenly veil opened by Christ’s sacrifice on the Cross has the character of a response to the prophet’s plea, but to collapse the whole to the crucifixion misses three important ruptures: the Incarnation, the experience of revelation, and apocalyptic judgement. While these two dimensions are present in the Crucifixion, they importantly retain a color and character unique to their phenomenological qualities. Yet the image of rupture speaks beautifully to the unspeakable yearning we have for that day, when the work that God had done in Christ reaches its full manifestation in our lives, experience, and history.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>In a rich interpretive move, the prolific exegetical artist Chris Powers elides the “rending of the heavens” named in Isaiah 62:1 into the “tearing of the veil of the Temple” at Jesus’s death (ie Mark 15:38). Certainly, the rupture of the heavenly veil opened by Christ’s sacrifice on the Cross has the character of a response to the prophet’s plea, but to collapse the whole to the crucifixion misses three important ruptures: the Incarnation, the experience of revelation, and apocalyptic judgement. While these two dimensions are present in the Crucifixion, they importantly retain a color and character unique to their phenomenological qualities. Yet the image of rupture speaks beautifully to the unspeakable yearning we have for that day, when the work that God had done in Christ reaches its full manifestation in our lives, experience, and history.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>In a rich interpretive move, the prolific exegetical artist Chris Powers elides the “rending of the heavens” named in Isaiah 62:1 into the “tearing of the veil of the Temple” at Jesus’s death (ie Mark 15:38). Certainly, the rupture of the heavenly veil opened by Christ’s sacrifice on the Cross has the character of a response to the prophet’s plea, but to collapse the whole to the crucifixion misses three important ruptures: the Incarnation, the experience of revelation, and apocalyptic judgement. While these two dimensions are present in the Crucifixion, they importantly retain a color and character unique to their phenomenological qualities. Yet the image of rupture speaks beautifully to the unspeakable yearning we have for that day, when the work that God had done in Christ reaches its full manifestation in our lives, experience, and history.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>In a rich interpretive move, the prolific exegetical artist Chris Powers elides the “rending of the heavens” named in Isaiah 62:1 into the “tearing of the veil of the Temple” at Jesus’s death (ie Mark 15:38). Certainly, the rupture of the heavenly veil opened by Christ’s sacrifice on the Cross has the character of a response to the prophet’s plea, but to collapse the whole to the crucifixion misses three important ruptures: the Incarnation, the experience of revelation, and apocalyptic judgement. While these two dimensions are present in the Crucifixion, they importantly retain a color and character unique to their phenomenological qualities. Yet the image of rupture speaks beautifully to the unspeakable yearning we have for that day, when the work that God had done in Christ reaches its full manifestation in our lives, experience, and history.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>In a rich interpretive move, the prolific exegetical artist Chris Powers elides the “rending of the heavens” named in Isaiah 62:1 into the “tearing of the veil of the Temple” at Jesus’s death (ie Mark 15:38). Certainly, the rupture of the heavenly veil opened by Christ’s sacrifice on the Cross has the character of a response to the prophet’s plea, but to collapse the whole to the crucifixion misses three important ruptures: the Incarnation, the experience of revelation, and apocalyptic judgement. While these two dimensions are present in the Crucifixion, they importantly retain a color and character unique to their phenomenological qualities. Yet the image of rupture speaks beautifully to the unspeakable yearning we have for that day, when the work that God had done in Christ reaches its full manifestation in our lives, experience, and history.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Resources - An Entrance Hymn</image:title>
      <image:caption>Advent is a season of entry. We are descending into darkness, as we deepen towards winter, and the light dims. At the same time, we are yearning towards the coming of the light, the culmination of all of God's good and beautiful promises. Marco Cazzulini captures this dynamic in his digital artwork, "Choral Cathedral" (2017). Cazzulini is channeling the energy of Psalm 24:7 -- "Lift up your head, O gates, and be lifted up, you everlasting doors, and the King of Glory shall come in!" Fascinating in Cazzulini's depiction is that we see the light only in the gates and the doors. The entry is dark and empty. It awaits the coming of the King of Glory, whose presence is felt in the infinite gloaming warmth of the golden frame. Cazzulini comments on his image thus: This triumphal and celebratory cry ‘Lift up your heads, O you gates’ seems to herald the entry of Christ into the vaunted place of His dominion. That which is closed, opens, and that which is worn, patinated by age, is commanded to lift up its head and acknowledge the arrival of the King of Glory. He who stands, and waits, at the doors of our own closed hearts, worn out by bad experience, shut through unbelief, locked by fear, ruined by sin, is the same King of Glory. He comes, knocks, but never forces entry, and on His ‘coming in’ we are lifted up by His own virtuous majesty. His entry transforms and illumines. Jesus comes in divine eminence and meek humanity. He wears His crown with humility and His presence welcomed is like opening a door to a fresh scented breeze. Great lofty cathedral interiors soaring into the void inform this artwork. Caught in the half light, their ceilings dissolve into a penumbral space as if no roof or limit existed. Their naves running into infinity, their transepts stretching into the unknown. Bearing equal creative weight is the image of a path running through a grove of tall trees with light ﬁltering through the canopy, camouﬂaging shapes and creating deep shadows. Advent is thus a season of luminous darkness. Our waiting, our anticipation is full of the brightness of promise and hope. It is also dark, empty, and cold, recognizing the absence of what is longed for and sought after. Let us therefore make space, for this paradoxical spaciousness. Let us lift up our heads, and look east. O that you would tear open the heavens and come down... — The Holy Prophet Isaiah (Isaiah 64:1)</image:caption>

      <image:title>Resources - That Great and Terrible Day</image:title>
      <image:caption>In a rich interpretive move, the prolific exegetical artist Chris Powers elides the “rending of the heavens” named in Isaiah 62:1 into the “tearing of the veil of the Temple” at Jesus’s death (ie Mark 15:38). Certainly, the rupture of the heavenly veil opened by Christ’s sacrifice on the Cross has the character of a response to the prophet’s plea, but to collapse the whole to the crucifixion misses three important ruptures: the Incarnation, the experience of revelation, and apocalyptic judgement. While these two dimensions are present in the Crucifixion, they importantly retain a color and character unique to their phenomenological qualities. Yet the image of rupture speaks beautifully to the unspeakable yearning we have for that day, when the work that God had done in Christ reaches its full manifestation in our lives, experience, and history.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>In a rich interpretive move, the prolific exegetical artist Chris Powers elides the “rending of the heavens” named in Isaiah 62:1 into the “tearing of the veil of the Temple” at Jesus’s death (ie Mark 15:38). Certainly, the rupture of the heavenly veil opened by Christ’s sacrifice on the Cross has the character of a response to the prophet’s plea, but to collapse the whole to the crucifixion misses three important ruptures: the Incarnation, the experience of revelation, and apocalyptic judgement. While these two dimensions are present in the Crucifixion, they importantly retain a color and character unique to their phenomenological qualities. Yet the image of rupture speaks beautifully to the unspeakable yearning we have for that day, when the work that God had done in Christ reaches its full manifestation in our lives, experience, and history.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>In a rich interpretive move, the prolific exegetical artist Chris Powers elides the “rending of the heavens” named in Isaiah 62:1 into the “tearing of the veil of the Temple” at Jesus’s death (ie Mark 15:38). Certainly, the rupture of the heavenly veil opened by Christ’s sacrifice on the Cross has the character of a response to the prophet’s plea, but to collapse the whole to the crucifixion misses three important ruptures: the Incarnation, the experience of revelation, and apocalyptic judgement. While these two dimensions are present in the Crucifixion, they importantly retain a color and character unique to their phenomenological qualities. Yet the image of rupture speaks beautifully to the unspeakable yearning we have for that day, when the work that God had done in Christ reaches its full manifestation in our lives, experience, and history.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>In a rich interpretive move, the prolific exegetical artist Chris Powers elides the “rending of the heavens” named in Isaiah 62:1 into the “tearing of the veil of the Temple” at Jesus’s death (ie Mark 15:38). Certainly, the rupture of the heavenly veil opened by Christ’s sacrifice on the Cross has the character of a response to the prophet’s plea, but to collapse the whole to the crucifixion misses three important ruptures: the Incarnation, the experience of revelation, and apocalyptic judgement. While these two dimensions are present in the Crucifixion, they importantly retain a color and character unique to their phenomenological qualities. Yet the image of rupture speaks beautifully to the unspeakable yearning we have for that day, when the work that God had done in Christ reaches its full manifestation in our lives, experience, and history.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>In a rich interpretive move, the prolific exegetical artist Chris Powers elides the “rending of the heavens” named in Isaiah 62:1 into the “tearing of the veil of the Temple” at Jesus’s death (ie Mark 15:38). Certainly, the rupture of the heavenly veil opened by Christ’s sacrifice on the Cross has the character of a response to the prophet’s plea, but to collapse the whole to the crucifixion misses three important ruptures: the Incarnation, the experience of revelation, and apocalyptic judgement. While these two dimensions are present in the Crucifixion, they importantly retain a color and character unique to their phenomenological qualities. Yet the image of rupture speaks beautifully to the unspeakable yearning we have for that day, when the work that God had done in Christ reaches its full manifestation in our lives, experience, and history.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>In a rich interpretive move, the prolific exegetical artist Chris Powers elides the “rending of the heavens” named in Isaiah 62:1 into the “tearing of the veil of the Temple” at Jesus’s death (ie Mark 15:38). Certainly, the rupture of the heavenly veil opened by Christ’s sacrifice on the Cross has the character of a response to the prophet’s plea, but to collapse the whole to the crucifixion misses three important ruptures: the Incarnation, the experience of revelation, and apocalyptic judgement. While these two dimensions are present in the Crucifixion, they importantly retain a color and character unique to their phenomenological qualities. Yet the image of rupture speaks beautifully to the unspeakable yearning we have for that day, when the work that God had done in Christ reaches its full manifestation in our lives, experience, and history.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Resources - Coming Soon …</image:title>
      <image:caption>The Christmas Tree display in the Tate Museum in London in 2016 by the British-Iranian artist Shirazeh Houshiary is arresting for its simplicity and its power. A live pine tree is suspended upside-down, with its exposed roots reaching up towards heaven, rather than down into the earth. Not only that, the roots are covered in gold leaf, evoking the wonder of heavenly things. The provocative display is abundantly appropriate for the Advent season. “Drop down, O heavens!” cries the Prophet Isaiah. We sense the heaviness of this time. We feel the darkness and the gloom that presses in upon us; the imminence of divine judgement. Christmas does not “come” so much as it “descends,” it falls upon us, often quite unprepared. And yet, what falls is not everything we dread, and all we fear we might deserve, but life, and light, and hope, and peace. This is the mystery we anticipate and we celebrate in this darkening and darkest time of the year: God-in-the-flesh come down into the midst of this broken world, and establishing forever his presence among us. The Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect. — Jesus Christ, the Son of God (Matt 24:44)</image:caption>

      <image:caption>In a rich interpretive move, the prolific exegetical artist Chris Powers elides the “rending of the heavens” named in Isaiah 62:1 into the “tearing of the veil of the Temple” at Jesus’s death (ie Mark 15:38). Certainly, the rupture of the heavenly veil opened by Christ’s sacrifice on the Cross has the character of a response to the prophet’s plea, but to collapse the whole to the crucifixion misses three important ruptures: the Incarnation, the experience of revelation, and apocalyptic judgement. While these two dimensions are present in the Crucifixion, they importantly retain a color and character unique to their phenomenological qualities. Yet the image of rupture speaks beautifully to the unspeakable yearning we have for that day, when the work that God had done in Christ reaches its full manifestation in our lives, experience, and history.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Resources - God’s Good Pleasure</image:title>
      <image:caption>In a rich interpretive move, the prolific exegetical artist Chris Powers elides the “rending of the heavens” named in Isaiah 62:1 into the “tearing of the veil of the Temple” at Jesus’s death (ie Mark 15:38). Certainly, the rupture of the heavenly veil opened by Christ’s sacrifice on the Cross has the character of a response to the prophet’s plea, but to collapse the whole to the crucifixion misses three important ruptures: the Incarnation, the experience of revelation, and apocalyptic judgement. While these two dimensions are present in the Crucifixion, they importantly retain a color and character unique to their phenomenological qualities. Yet the image of rupture speaks beautifully to the unspeakable yearning we have for that day, when the work that God had done in Christ reaches its full manifestation in our lives, experience, and history.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>In a rich interpretive move, the prolific exegetical artist Chris Powers elides the “rending of the heavens” named in Isaiah 62:1 into the “tearing of the veil of the Temple” at Jesus’s death (ie Mark 15:38). Certainly, the rupture of the heavenly veil opened by Christ’s sacrifice on the Cross has the character of a response to the prophet’s plea, but to collapse the whole to the crucifixion misses three important ruptures: the Incarnation, the experience of revelation, and apocalyptic judgement. While these two dimensions are present in the Crucifixion, they importantly retain a color and character unique to their phenomenological qualities. Yet the image of rupture speaks beautifully to the unspeakable yearning we have for that day, when the work that God had done in Christ reaches its full manifestation in our lives, experience, and history.</image:caption>

Certainly, the rupture of the heavenly veil opened by Christ’s sacrifice on the Cross has the character of a response to the prophet’s plea, but to collapse the whole to the crucifixion misses three important ruptures: the Incarnation, the experience of revelation, and apocalyptic judgement. While these two dimensions are present in the Crucifixion, they importantly retain a color and character unique to their phenomenological qualities. Yet the image of rupture speaks beautifully to the unspeakable yearning we have for that day, when the work that God had done in Christ reaches its full manifestation in our lives, experience, and history.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>In a rich interpretive move, the prolific exegetical artist Chris Powers elides the “rending of the heavens” named in Isaiah 62:1 into the “tearing of the veil of the Temple” at Jesus’s death (ie Mark 15:38). Certainly, the rupture of the heavenly veil opened by Christ’s sacrifice on the Cross has the character of a response to the prophet’s plea, but to collapse the whole to the crucifixion misses three important ruptures: the Incarnation, the experience of revelation, and apocalyptic judgement. While these two dimensions are present in the Crucifixion, they importantly retain a color and character unique to their phenomenological qualities. Yet the image of rupture speaks beautifully to the unspeakable yearning we have for that day, when the work that God had done in Christ reaches its full manifestation in our lives, experience, and history.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Resources - Surely, the Lord is Coming Soon</image:title>
      <image:caption>There’s little that’s traditionally “Advent”-y about Canadian artist Melani Pyke’s Weight of the World Allowed Living Water to Flow. The heart of the image is, of course, the Crucified Christ enthroned upon a mountain, bearing above him a dark cloud, and with a great torrent emerging from his heart. But what Pyke perceives — not only here, but in other of her paintings — is a profound sense of the power of Christ in both his presence and coming that we do well to allow to pervade our anticipation of both his coming, and his coming again.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Resources - Jesus Christ, King of the Universe</image:title>
      <image:caption>While the 19th C. Russian artist Julius Sergius Klever is most known for his sublime landscapes, in Christ on the Water (ca 1880), he turns trained to the interplay of faded sunlight with the horizon to the subject of Jesus Christ, and his singular and solitary presence upon the waves of the sea. The simple painting is serene but unsettled: Christ stands alone and forlorn in an impossible space, and the roiling waves are offset by a warm luminosity. But the light is the light of Christ himself: even the sun is caught up within the drama of his divinity, although he — his eyes humbly cast downward — quietly receives this centrality, rather than seizing upon it</image:caption>

      <image:title>Resources - The Abomination that causes Desolation</image:title>
      <image:caption>In a rich interpretive move, the prolific exegetical artist Chris Powers elides the “rending of the heavens” named in Isaiah 62:1 into the “tearing of the veil of the Temple” at Jesus’s death (ie Mark 15:38). Certainly, the rupture of the heavenly veil opened by Christ’s sacrifice on the Cross has the character of a response to the prophet’s plea, but to collapse the whole to the crucifixion misses three important ruptures: the Incarnation, the experience of revelation, and apocalyptic judgement. While these two dimensions are present in the Crucifixion, they importantly retain a color and character unique to their phenomenological qualities. Yet the image of rupture speaks beautifully to the unspeakable yearning we have for that day, when the work that God had done in Christ reaches its full manifestation in our lives, experience, and history.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>In a rich interpretive move, the prolific exegetical artist Chris Powers elides the “rending of the heavens” named in Isaiah 62:1 into the “tearing of the veil of the Temple” at Jesus’s death (ie Mark 15:38). Certainly, the rupture of the heavenly veil opened by Christ’s sacrifice on the Cross has the character of a response to the prophet’s plea, but to collapse the whole to the crucifixion misses three important ruptures: the Incarnation, the experience of revelation, and apocalyptic judgement. While these two dimensions are present in the Crucifixion, they importantly retain a color and character unique to their phenomenological qualities. Yet the image of rupture speaks beautifully to the unspeakable yearning we have for that day, when the work that God had done in Christ reaches its full manifestation in our lives, experience, and history.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Resources - Abundance in the Wilderness</image:title>
      <image:caption>In a rich interpretive move, the prolific exegetical artist Chris Powers elides the “rending of the heavens” named in Isaiah 62:1 into the “tearing of the veil of the Temple” at Jesus’s death (ie Mark 15:38). Certainly, the rupture of the heavenly veil opened by Christ’s sacrifice on the Cross has the character of a response to the prophet’s plea, but to collapse the whole to the crucifixion misses three important ruptures: the Incarnation, the experience of revelation, and apocalyptic judgement. While these two dimensions are present in the Crucifixion, they importantly retain a color and character unique to their phenomenological qualities. Yet the image of rupture speaks beautifully to the unspeakable yearning we have for that day, when the work that God had done in Christ reaches its full manifestation in our lives, experience, and history.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Resources - Gone, but not Absent</image:title>
      <image:caption>In a rich interpretive move, the prolific exegetical artist Chris Powers elides the “rending of the heavens” named in Isaiah 62:1 into the “tearing of the veil of the Temple” at Jesus’s death (ie Mark 15:38). Certainly, the rupture of the heavenly veil opened by Christ’s sacrifice on the Cross has the character of a response to the prophet’s plea, but to collapse the whole to the crucifixion misses three important ruptures: the Incarnation, the experience of revelation, and apocalyptic judgement. While these two dimensions are present in the Crucifixion, they importantly retain a color and character unique to their phenomenological qualities. Yet the image of rupture speaks beautifully to the unspeakable yearning we have for that day, when the work that God had done in Christ reaches its full manifestation in our lives, experience, and history.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>In a rich interpretive move, the prolific exegetical artist Chris Powers elides the “rending of the heavens” named in Isaiah 62:1 into the “tearing of the veil of the Temple” at Jesus’s death (ie Mark 15:38). Certainly, the rupture of the heavenly veil opened by Christ’s sacrifice on the Cross has the character of a response to the prophet’s plea, but to collapse the whole to the crucifixion misses three important ruptures: the Incarnation, the experience of revelation, and apocalyptic judgement. While these two dimensions are present in the Crucifixion, they importantly retain a color and character unique to their phenomenological qualities. Yet the image of rupture speaks beautifully to the unspeakable yearning we have for that day, when the work that God had done in Christ reaches its full manifestation in our lives, experience, and history.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>In a rich interpretive move, the prolific exegetical artist Chris Powers elides the “rending of the heavens” named in Isaiah 62:1 into the “tearing of the veil of the Temple” at Jesus’s death (ie Mark 15:38). Certainly, the rupture of the heavenly veil opened by Christ’s sacrifice on the Cross has the character of a response to the prophet’s plea, but to collapse the whole to the crucifixion misses three important ruptures: the Incarnation, the experience of revelation, and apocalyptic judgement. While these two dimensions are present in the Crucifixion, they importantly retain a color and character unique to their phenomenological qualities. Yet the image of rupture speaks beautifully to the unspeakable yearning we have for that day, when the work that God had done in Christ reaches its full manifestation in our lives, experience, and history.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Resources - The Feast of St. Andrew, the First Called</image:title>
      <image:caption>A modern and highly geometrical depiction of the calling of Peter and Andrew, this painting also departs from the classical iconography by preferencing a cool color palette of earthy browns and watery blues over the heavenly warmth of gold and ochre. The artist, Jorge Coco Santangelo, is an Argentinian Mormon, and this image was featured in 2015 at the LDS Church History Museum’s 10th Annual International Art Competition, Tell Me the Stories of Jesus.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Resources - The Feast of St. Andrew, the First Called</image:title>
      <image:caption>Canadian artist Harrison Prozenko applies a Coptic iconographical style in a contemporary, confessional Lutheran context. Incorporating the saltire St Andrew’s Cross in blue, he alludes to the strong currents of devotion to Andrew in Scotland, whose flag consists of a white saltire on a blue field.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Resources - The Feast of St. Andrew, the First Called</image:title>
      <image:caption>Like the Santangelo, China-born artist He Qi’s Calling of the Disciples is highly geometrical, although Qi takes more liberties with his subject, and the whole episode is significantly more abstract and symbolic. This is typical of Qi’s style. Interestingly, although Qi clearly is not using the classical images of the calling as a porotype, he chose a warm color scheme for the scene. This is not a foregone conclusion, as other of his paintings do major in the cooler blues and greens.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>See the full arch This 6th C depiction is “classic Andrew:” perhaps because his name means “manly,” he is often depicted with wild hair in the earliest renderings. Another explanation is prhaps Andrew became especially associated with Jesus’s saying that, “Not a hair on your head shall perish.” (Luke 21:18).</image:caption>

      <image:title>Resources - The First Sunday of Advent</image:title>
      <image:caption>In a rich interpretive move, the prolific exegetical artist Chris Powers elides the “rending of the heavens” named in Isaiah 62:1 into the “tearing of the veil of the Temple” at Jesus’s death (ie Mark 15:38). Certainly, the rupture of the heavenly veil opened by Christ’s sacrifice on the Cross has the character of a response to the prophet’s plea, but to collapse the whole to the crucifixion misses three important ruptures: the Incarnation, the experience of revelation, and apocalyptic judgement. While these two dimensions are present in the Crucifixion, they importantly retain a color and character unique to their phenomenological qualities. Yet the image of rupture speaks beautifully to the unspeakable yearning we have for that day, when the work that God had done in Christ reaches its full manifestation in our lives, experience, and history.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Resources - The Feast of Christ the King</image:title>
      <image:caption>This depiction of Cristo Ray (Christ the King) from the contemporary Columbian artist Fernando Jaramillo seems especially well-suited to represent the Kingship of Christ 2020. Christ is unambiguously the center of focus an attention, and yet, the surrounding chaos is so full that he is almost receding off into oblivion. He stands above the chaos, and the chaos swirls around him, and all of the pieces seem to have something to do with him — some kind of geometric or thematic or spatial relationship — but there’s simply so much going on it’s hard to take it all in.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Resources - Hidden Talents</image:title>
      <image:caption>The German-Serbian iconographer Nikola Saric's depiction of the Parable of the Talents appears in his collection of Earthly Stories with Heavenly Meanings. I am struck that, as much as the offerings are what differentiates the characters as "in the light" and "near the Lord," how small these offerings are relative to the whole frame of the action: indeed, the offering is but the fruit of the posture. Those in the light look with intense concern, with hands gently extended; the one in the darkness looks defensive, almost angry, and his hands distracting and deflecting.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Resources - The Bridegroom Comes</image:title>
      <image:caption>Painted just before the turn of the 20th C, the Greek artist Nikolaos Gyzis's depiction of the Bridegroom's coming (Ιδού ο Νυμφίος έρχεται) stands visually between the iconographic style of his native Orthodox Church, and a continental Romantic style almost reminiscent of Blake, and unlike his characteristic Munich school. Curiously, though the "bridegroom comes" according to the title of the image, it is difficult to identify where the presence of the bridegroom is located. Certainly, the angelic figures are arrayed to receive him: could he be the Divine figure sitting on the throne? Or the angelic figure descending from the top of the frame? The image's subtly enigmatic character invites and rewards contemplation.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Dear Jesus, I believe that you are truly present in the Holy Sacrament. I love you above all things, and I desire to possess you within my soul. And since I cannot now receive you sacramentally, I beseech you to come spiritually into my heart. I unite myself to you, together with all your faithful people gathered around every altar of your Church, and I embrace you with all the affections of my soul. Never permit me to be separated from you.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>O Almighty God, who in your wrath sent a plague upon your own people in the wilderness for their obstinate rebellion against Moses and Aaron; and also in the time of King David, sent a plague of pestilence which killed seventy thousand, but, remembering your mercy, spared the rest: Have pity upon us miserable sinners, who now are visited with great sickness and mortality; and in the same way that you then accepted an atonement and commanded the destroying Angel to cease from punishing: so it may now please you to withdraw from us this plague and grievous sickness, through Jesus Christ our Lord.</image:caption>
