The joy that results when words and art collide
Posted by Frank N Koob on Oct 31st 2017
Art, scripture, and the written word come together to reflect upon a metaphorical understanding of a spiritual reality. This challenges the person perusing the sections of the book to form one's own metaphorical approach toward the same reality. This book is on my coffee table. I hope that my guests pick it up and peruse it and grow a little bit from perusing I as I have.
