Eyes to See: The Redemptive Purpose of Icons offers the discovery of life-giving spiritual insights found through learning to read the language of religious icons. Written especially for those whose traditions have not included icons, this book introduces eight icons written (painted) by the author. Historical notes, explanation of symbolism, related scriptures for interpretation, and a reflection for each icon deepens understanding and appreciation for the ancient holy images of the Church.
The book is eight chapters in length, each describing one of the eight full-color icon plates in the insert.
Written by a Protestant for a non-Orthodox readership
Includes full-color images of eight icons
Strong potential for group study
