Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Did you know that Moses is depicted with horns in our stained glass windows? Did you know that we have a grasshopper in our sanctuary? How about a Phoenix or why a Phoenix is often associated with the life of Jesus? Did you know that Judas is depicted and that he has no halo? Have you ever noticed the rainbow or that one side of the windows is more complex and darker than the other? Why is the Temple shown in phases and represented in three separate icons? Did you know that one of the most respected stained glass studios in the world designed and manufactured our windows? They left their mark in one of our windows; do you know where? Did you know that the windows were placed into their location over time as donors were secured to pay for them? Have you ever noticed that the stained glass windows are surrounded by clear glass and thus allow for light to come into the sanctuary with beautiful tones and at the same time allowing one to see outside? The content of the windows, arranging for donors to pay for them and coordinating the stain glass studio's iconography with the architectural design of the construction company was all under the watchful eye of the then Pastor of the First United Methodist Church Reverend Jim Thompson. Reverend Thompson was truly the right man at the right time for our church. This book is intended to be both illuminating and instructional to the young and the old alike. For the adult each of the figures in the windows has been isolated by digital photography, their position delineated, and accompanied by a verse representative of their biblical significance. One can quickly see how the broad range of subject matter represented in our windows could serve as a summer long Bible study. In regards to children each figure has been rendered as an easily recognizable cartoon that can be colored and thereby encourage an understanding of the Old and New Testament and also our sanctuary's windows. One can envision a youth Sunday school class sitting in the sanctuary coloring the various figures being bathed by the light coming through the stained glass as they use it for a template. Finally it is hoped that this book will foster a better knowledge, understanding and appreciation of our windows and in turn further enhance the worship experience; a goal that Reverend Thompson so passionately and diligently strove to achieve.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the 11th century, stained glass has infused the sanctuary with "scripture held up to the light". Through the release of brilliant hues, the power and mystery of God's story has been told to billions throughout the centuries. This feast of light and color continues to elicit spiritual, emotional, and aesthetic reactions, even in the midst of technological sophistication. God's Story Through God's Light guides the modern liturgical committee through the stained glass design process, and suggests the appropriate long-range plan of restoration, protection, and insulation. After inspecting the stained glass of two thousand American churches and synagogues, Dr. Gary M. Gray now shares this vital knowledge with those assigned to create and perpetuate the spiritual message to present and future generations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Give me a pill and I'll feel better. Give me a drink so I'll forget. Give me a cig. It'll help my nerves. Ugh! I can hardly take a breath. Let me have sex, I need someone to love me. As a matter of fact, I can't get enough. What is your name? Oh, yes. I remember! Could you pass me my pills so I'll forget... And don't forget a drink to wash them down! —Excerpt from the play Get Nailed At thirty-nine years old, I raised my hand to heaven and said, 'If You are really real, You are going to have to help me because I don't want to live like this anymore, and I will be damned to hell if my daughter's life is going to end up like mine.' and then sealing my fate I added, 'Give me a hunger and thirst for your Word that I cannot satiate with anything else but You.' After years of walking through life alone, I suddenly found a real Savior. I poured myself into my relationship with him, and my life began to turn around. I discovered a world, within this world, and all I had to do was enter through the cross in the Stained Glass Window. I was the lost sheep he left the ninety-nine for. The Stained Glass Window recounts the details of my life before and after I came to know Christ. See how important you are to God regardless of any poor choices you've made. Realize that you are the one in the stained glass window.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The essay describes the research that Faber did in order to inform his church members as to what kind of windows might be commissioned and placed in Grace Church, Lockport, where he was the resident Catholic priest.The essay is scholarly in tone and Faber goes into a great deal of detail. He was clearly delighted to be tasked with this important role as he says 'It is an unspeakable privilege to be permitted to place a memorial like this in the house of God, bringing ever new comfort and joy to hearts bereaved, and satisfaction to the donors; yes, if there is need to say it, it is an honor to be permitted to do it.' Frederick William Faber (1814 –1863) was a noted English hymn writer and theologian, who converted from Anglicanism to Roman Catholicism in 1845. He was ordained to the Catholic priesthood subsequently in 1847. His best-known work is Faith of Our Fathers. Nicholas Carter lives near Bristol and has been a journalist in the West Country for seventeen years. He is a member of The Sealed Knot.
