'The God Who Gave You Birth' is a beautiful art book exploring the female imagery used to describe God found within the Bible and church history. Suitable for all ages as an aid to contemplation and a discussion starter. Also includes words of support from Rachel Treweek, the Bishop of Gloucester.
We are all made in God’s image. This beautiful picture book explores this truth by making use of biblical imagery and quotes from church history. By focussing on the female imagery used to describe God Eloise invites the reader into a richer contemplation of the Divine and of each other. This book is suitable for children and families of all ages. The quotes accompanying each picture are kept simple with additional notes at the back for those who would like to go deeper.
"The images which Eloise has created for this project are beautiful and diverse, with a wide range of resonances and connections. In her use of feminine imagery and language she is making a significant contribution to ongoing conversations around our faith and who God is. Eloise has chosen apt verses from scripture to illustrate the truth that we are all created in God's image and I hope this book will provoke deep theological reflection.” Rachel Treweek, Bishop of Gloucester
The book would make a thought provoking companion for private reflection and for collective use within a worship community. It would appeal to those who are exploring feminist theology and those who are seeking to broaden their faith. The book invites the reader to experience the maternal love of God using inclusive and diverse imagery. In creating this book the author aims to support a more rounded view of the Divine and of each other.
