Few of us remember all of Jesus’ parables; it seems each time I read the New Testament,
it’s a matter of rediscovery. I’ll come upon a certain parable and find it has new meaning and relevance
to my life. That’s why I thought I would gather several parables together in one image and create an opportunity
for viewers to recall and share them. I worked closely with my friend Robert Millet, Dean of Religious Studies at Brigham
Young University, in selecting these twelve and we feel that each conveys a special aspect of Jesus’ teachings.
I always hope my work fosters not only contemplation and personal reflection, but also a sharing of experiences.
I’d be delighted if this print inspired you to talk about these stories with your children or grandchildren.
