About this episode
The episode discusses the portrayal of Christian themes in modern art, particularly through the lens of Jesus as the Good Shepherd in John's Gospel.
When it comes to modern Christian art on the internet, there’s almost no end to pictures of our Savior, and images depicting Christian life. However, many of them can only be described as, well … “upside down.” Thankfully, in John's Gospel Jesus describes Himself, and has given us a beautiful picture of our salvation, in His portrait of the Good Shepherd.
