Forgiven The Painting by Thomas Blackshear II

by Roy Lessin

Centered on Thomas Blackshear II's eponymous painting, this devotional gift book explores the topic of forgiveness-a subject fundamental to Christian belief. In each chapter, Roy Lessin presents a specific aspect from Blackshear's painting, a relevant selection of Bible verses, and a prayer. Finally, he offers a reflection based upon a truth revealed in both the scripture and the painting. FORGIVEN focuses on twelve key concepts in all, including grace, holiness, darkness, guilt, strength, and redemption. Each chapter supports Lessin's affirmation that forgiveness is one of the greatest joys, and one of the most profound gifts, that we can experience.
