|
Symbols have been used to tell the Christian story in every century since the time of Jesus Christ. From simple scratches on the walls of burial chambers to lifelike depictions of the risen Savior in priceless stained glass windows, symbols have told the Bible’s magnificent story of Jesus.
While the meanings of some symbols are obvious to the viewer, older, more obscure symbols may not be so obvious. Have you ever seen a pelican in a stained glass window? Do you know the real meaning of the popular fish symbol? Is the story of the candy cane true? This book will simply and clearly answer these and many more questions about the origins and usage of Christian symbols.
Perhaps you want to use Christian symbols in your local church or ministry. This book will help give you ideas and instruct you in each symbol’s proper usage.
Packed full of terms and definitions with over 500 images and illustrations, Christian Symbology is your guide to the obscure world of Christian symbols.
