The world is noisy and disorientating. Our hearts need beauty and truth.
Heather Holdsworth experienced the death of her father followed shortly by the death of her mother. A few years later she battled a sickness that left her without the strength to stand, walk, or even speak. She opened the book of Psalms. She began writing. And from her writing emerged drawings that brought solace to her soul.
Through the medium of art and words, artist and Bible teacher Heather Holdsworth shares an illustrated journey into the Psalms. Landscape of Hope takes passages that have become familiar—perhaps too familiar—and reveals their soul-strengthening, heart-restoring power. Through artwork and commentary, readers find themselves deeply engaging with the Bible and the triune God.
Heather invites us to come alongside her in discovering the artistry, symmetry, and wonder of this ancient text. Readers experience the presence of the Eternal as they engage with the truth of life's fragility and find hope in a renewed vision of God.
