Seeing the Gospel in Stone: Early Christian Art & Biblical Meaning invites readers to explore how the earliest Christians expressed their faith in a hostile world-through images carved in stone, painted on walls, and etched into tombs.
Written for Bible students who may have never given early Christian art more than a passing glance, this book examines the symbols found in Roman catacombs and early Christian burial sites and connects them directly to Scripture. From the Ichthus and the Good Shepherd to Jonah, Lazarus, and Christ as Alpha and Omega, each image is explored through a biblical lens, revealing how early believers proclaimed hope, resurrection, and faith in Christ without compromising the authority of God's Word.
Rather than allowing art to define doctrine, this study carefully demonstrates how early Christian imagery reflected beliefs already rooted in Scripture. Readers will gain historical context about persecution, worship, and daily life in the early church while remaining firmly grounded in biblical truth.
Accessible, Scripture-centered, and historically responsible, Seeing the Gospel in Stone helps modern readers better understand the faith of the early church-and appreciate how visual testimony reinforced the gospel message in times of danger and loss.
Early Christian art illustrates belief; Scripture defines it.
