In this workshop we will engage in visual lectio divina, employing examples of ancient and medieval Christian art that depict the mysteries of our ongoing spiritual journey and our final destiny of union with God. Images to be studied will include Byzantine icons, illuminated manuscripts, and the work of late medieval artists.
