Across the [W]hole Story series, three of Crosspointe's artists created a mural. Since we are painting a series that is looking at scripture as a whole, the symbology that plays throughout took life in paint on the canvas. It was interesting to watch recurring ideas of trees (tree of life, tree of the cross, trees in Revelation), the dove (at the ark, at Jesus' baptism), the thorns (as part of the curse when Adam and Eve are exiled in the book of Genesis to the crown of thorns that Christ wore on the cross)....the metaphors used in Scripture caught meaning in context of the whole story--one of creation, fall, redemption and restoration.
The last circle on the mural is the part of the story where everything is restored. Where the "lion lays with the lamb." We are all waiting for the ending to the story.
