The Emmaus Project

We named this artistic family endeavor as The Emmaus Project based on Luke 24:13-35. If you take the time to read the passage in the Bible, you will learn what Cleopas and the other guy did on their way to a village called Emmaus. To us, it was a parallel experience of preparing ourselves for the worship painting: we knew where we were "heading" and what we were supposed to do, but we did not know how God will work in us as we listen to Him in worship that particular evening. Our getting "there" was our own personal "Emmaus" experience. It was an amazing spiritual journey for the four of us who travelled along the way - together and then separately being spoken to by God in our hearts, just as Jesus told the two Emmaus travellers what they need to learn about the Scriptures.

 

Our worship culminated in a bigger painting on a 18"x24" canvas board where the four of us collaborated on a singular painting to come up with The Pentecost.
