Global Images of Christ



Like many of us I gather pictures of Jesus from various places and
use them in various ways, often rather neglectful of the copyright
issues involved.

So I've been ecstatic to come across an excellent resource called "The
Christ We Share" which has given me a legal way to do this.

Produced by the Church Missionary Society in the UK, it contains 35
full colour images of Christ from various cultures around the world.

The images come as A5 mini posters, AND on CDROM as high and low
resolution images and two Powerpoint presentations - one with music by Proost.

But wait there's more... The pack also contains an excellent range of
activity sheets and worship ideas enabling people to explore how and
why various people and cultures see Christ through different eyes.

some of the images you will have seen before, particularly in WCC
publications - some will no doubt shock and disturb some.

It costs only 15 pounds sterling (where is that pound symbol when you
need it...!) and for me an extra 6 pounds for air freight to Oz.

Highly recommended - its stunning.

They don't have online ordering so you have to fax the details.
