Multi-Colored Stained Glass Cross

Illuminated Quotes Described: a contemporary stained glass cross, colors: purple, teal, peach, yellow and white, geometric shapes, transparent background, two quotes on matching decorative panels thus far: one by Phillip Yancy and the other by Pastor John Piper

"To some, the image of a pale body glimmering on a dark night whispers of defeat. What good is a God who does not control his Son's suffering? But another sound can be heard: the shout of a God crying out to human beings, "I LOVE YOU." Love was compressed for all history in that lonely figure on the cross, who said that he could call down angels at any moment on a rescue mission, but chose not to because of us. At Calvary, God accepted his own unbreakable terms of justice." Philip Yancy
"Life is wasted if we do not grasp the glory of the cross, cherish it for the treasure that it is, and cleave to it as the highest price of every pleasure and the deepest comfort in every pain. What was once foolishness to us- a crucified God- must become our wisdom and our power and our only boast in this world." John Piper

Illustration of The Torah

The graphic of a Torah,
in dark navy and gold.
Description of the Illustration: Above and below are two versions of a Torah, one with a white background the other with a black background.

Torah (/ˈtɔːrÉ™ĖŒĖˆtoʊrə/; Hebrew: ×Ŗּוֹרָה, "Instruction, Teaching"), or the Pentateuch (/ˈpɛntÉ™ĖŒtuːk, -ˌtjuːk/), is the central reference of the religious Judaic tradition. It has a range of meanings. It can most specifically mean the first five books of the twenty-four books of the Tanakh, and it usually includes the rabbinic commentaries. The term Torah means instruction and offers a way of life for those who follow it; it can mean the continued narrative from Genesis to the end of the Tanakh, and it can even mean the totality of Jewish teaching, culture and practice. Common to all these meanings, Torah consists of the foundational narrative of the Jews: their call into being by God, their trials and tribulations, and their covenant with their God, which involves following a way of life embodied in a set of moral and religious obligations and civil laws (halakha).
