In 2019, Tom and Gayle Holdman, along with the artists of the Holdman Studio, completed a twenty-by-seven-foot, five-panel stained-glass window depicting the life and mission of Jesus Christ. After its permanent installation in Rome, Italy, Tom and Gayle were concerned that there would be people who might never see this particular work. To remedy the problem they envisioned a new, expanded window that could be exhibited worldwide.<\/p>\n
They created a nine-panel, stained-glass window that includes the rest of the New Testament stories of the life and mission of Jesus Christ. It was first unveiled in Paris, France, in 2023, then traveled to London, England, in 2024.<\/p>\n
This gorgeous book details both the process of making this monumental artwork as well as highlights its fine details. The reader can follow the 180 individual images along a path through the Savior\u2019s life, from His Nativity to His death and Resurrection. Brief commentaries for each element elaborate on the symbolism behind the image, from a shaft of light representing the creation of the world to a dove as the Holy Spirit. The text also touches on the history of the person being portrayed, including Peter, James, Philip, and the woman at the well. Some of Jesus\u2019s most familiar teachings and parables are represented, reminding us of the blessings behind the \u201cwidow\u2019s mite\u201d and the \u201cGood Samaritan.\u201d Christians and art lovers alike will enjoy this monumental visual tribute to the life and mission of Jesus Christ.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
