"The icon is a way for the friends of Christ to share in his mysteries, in the sacraments, and to come to know the Father as Jesus knew him in the flesh.. Each icon reveals a different facet of who Jesus is and what he has done in creation."-Megan McKenna.
While twenty-one beautiful, glowing icons lead us to see Jesus face to face, the accompanying reflections call us to become 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 presence of the divine.
Megan McKenna travels worldwide leading retreats and workshops on Scripture, story-telling, and justice and peace. Her many books include Mary, Mother of All Nations, Not Counting Women and Children, and Prophets.
William Hart McNichols, s.j., a Jesuit priest and iconographer, currently resides in Taos, New Mexico. More of his icons are featured an Mary, Mother of All Nations and The Bride (text by Daniel Berrigan).
