As we encounter and discover God, we are inevitably led to further unpack our sense of beauty and its meaning for our faith-lives. As a culture, we often describe God as true and good. We use the descriptor of beautiful less often―and we struggle to articulate the intuitive relationship between it and the things of God: calling, spirituality, mission, and more. This book is designed to bridge the gap. Through the story of Mark 14:1-11, "The Story of the Woman with the Alabaster Jar," this book explores beauty and its profound implications for our lives. Chapters include: On Beauty and ArtOn Beauty and IdentityOn Beauty and GenerosityOn Beauty and VulnerabilityOn Beauty and MysteryOn Beauty and JusticeOn Beauty and Changing the World Alabaster combines thoughtful design, artistic photography, and original biblical texts to create inspiring products for the Instagram and TikTok generation. Alabaster has quickly become one of the fastest-growing private companies in California according to Inc Magazine. Alabaster invites you to lean in and take a closer look at beauty and faith, evoking feelings and thoughtful reflection.
