Overview

While twenty-one beautiful, glowing icons lead us to encounter Jesus face-to face, the accompanying reflections by Megan McKenna call us to become ourselves this image of God, to put on the new life of Christ. As they have throughout the centuries, icons lead us, teach us, inspire us, and draw us into the presence of the divine. The full color images by modern iconographer William Hart McNichols include portraits of Jesus and Mary, of canonical saints and modern martyrs and witnesses.
