What Child Is This? – An Animation
This animation draws especially on Isaiah 25:6-9. In that passage, Isaiah envisions the day of YHWH’s eschatological salvation of His people as a great feast prepared by the Lord on the mountain of Zion (Is. 25:6). On the day of the feast–which implies table fellowship between man and man, and God and humanity–on the day …

This animation is the second in an “Easter Trilogy” trilogy considering Good Friday, Holy Saturday, and Resurrection Sunday (the animation dealing with Good Friday is here.).

True Food – An Animation
This animation is an attempt to bring the all-satisfying beauty of the crucified and risen Christ to bear against the soul-ailment of addiction. My prayer is that it might be used to stir holy love for the Triune God and so decisively shatter strongholds of lesser joys, and that those who are weary of falling …

Get it on Amazon “He is the radiance of the glory of God…” – Hebrews 1:3 The most glorious news in all of reality is that the God for whom we—and all things—exist is communicated to his creation with definitive authority in the incarnate Son (John1:14,18), and with climactic finality in the revelatory redemption of …
Romans 8:31-39
Romans 8:31-39 In verses 31-34, Paul asks three questions that extol the benefits of God’s love for His people in Christ. First, “Who can be against us?” The answer: no one, since God is for us and has shown just how “for us” He is by giving His own Son. Second, “Who shall bring any …
Colossians 4:2-4
Continue steadfastly in prayer, being watchful in it with thanksgiving.3 At the same time, pray also for us, that God may open to us a door for the word, to declare the mystery of Christ, on account of which I am in prison— 4 that I may make it clear, which is how I ought to speak. …
1 John 4:10 [Propitiation]
This picture is a clear and sobering reminder of what the Love of God accomplished at the cross….namely, the swallowing up of the Wrath of God—indeed, the hell—that I deserved. In this wrath-bearing, hell-extinguishing, rebel-reconciling death, the God who is Love manifests Himself to all who have eyes to see. ”In THIS is love, not …
Ephesians 2:1-7
And you were dead in the trespasses and sins in which you once walked, following the course of this world, following the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that is now at work in the sons of disobedience–among whom we all once lived in the passions of our flesh, carrying out …
Matthew 4:15-16
“The land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali, the way of the sea, beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles— the people dwelling in darkness have seen a great light, and for those dwelling in the region and shadow of death, on them a light has dawned.” Matthew 4:15-16 In this passage, Matthew quotes a prophecy …
Revelation 19:6-9
While this image is definitely inspired by biblical teaching (Ephesians 5:25ff, Revelation 19:6-9, etc.), it is not based on a specific passage, which makes it different than most of the work I do. However, I was asked by a FOE monthly supporter to make a picture based on the theme of the wedding of Christ …
Psalm 23:5
You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; you anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows. The Passage Explained With verse 5, Psalm 23 seems to shift its central metaphor from that of shepherd and sheep to one that more prominently pictures YHWH as the master of a great …
Hebrews 9:24-28
“For Christ has entered, not into holy places made with hands, which are copies of the true things, but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God on our behalf. Nor was it to offer himself repeatedly, as the high priest enters the holy places every year with blood not his own, …
Hebrews 10:19-23
Therefore, brothers, since we have confidence to enter the holy places by the blood of Jesus, by the new and living way that he opened for us through the curtain, that is, through his flesh, and since we have a great priest over the house of God, let us draw near with a true …
