The Way of Love (Artful Devotion)

Absolution by Andrey Yanev — Andrey Yanev (Bulgarian, 1965–), *Fraternal Forgiveness*, n.d. Oil on canvas, 130 × 100 cm.

Put on then, as God’s chosen ones, holy and beloved, compassionate hearts, kindness, humility, meekness, and patience, bearing with one another and, if one has a complaint against another, forgiving each other; as the Lord has forgiven you, so you also must forgive. And above all these put on love, which binds everything together in perfect harmony.

—Colossians 3:12–14

I love what you are doing with your blog. I have no artistic abilities but I think art through music, paintings, murals etc (and NOT typical Christian propoganda) is essential for the Christian life. This is awesome!
