Comments on: Picturing Jesus — Part II: What is Jesus looking at up there? https://mikefrost.net/pictures-of-jesus-part-ii-what-is-jesus-looking-at-up-there/ AUTHOR | SPEAKER | MISSIOLOGIST | AGITATOR Thu, 17 Mar 2022 01:58:28 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.4.4 By: Ada https://mikefrost.net/pictures-of-jesus-part-ii-what-is-jesus-looking-at-up-there/#comment-38587 Sun, 13 Mar 2022 17:38:14 +0000 https://mikefrost.net/?p=31842#comment-38587 The beautification project, despite being deliberate, does have a point. I do often feel a reverence & the holiness of God in Catholic churches I often don’t in Protestant ones. Of course, my experience is limited, so take that with a grain of salt.
On an unrelated note, since this is a series, I’d be fascinated to learn of women artists & their depictions of Jesus. Not because I think they’re radically different or better.
Just to know.
I think there were some in a book, She Who Is by: Elizabeth A. Johnson.
Oh, & I assume there will be a pos about modren depictions of Jesus.
Of course, an important note is to not be too carried away by all this. Because in the end, it won’t matter. But at the same time, it doesn’t hurt to imagine?
