Martha by Jenny Morrow
Meet Martha who has a servants heart and so much Faith. A personal friend of Jesus.
Martha is one of the women of the Bible I believe we can all understand. She had a heart to serve.
Most of us do. But in her serving she honestly forgot what was really important, the visiting. Sometimes we are so busy in trying to make things look good for others that we can’t just focus on the conversation, enjoying each other. We can forget what’s right in front of us. In this instance Luke 10 it’s that Martha wanted everything to be so perfect for Jesus and his disciples that she was in the kitchen and a not just listening to Him speak. Then feeling like she’s doing everything while Mary is listening to Jesus. We live in a very distracting world. A world where everything is put on display and we worry about if people are gonna like it or not. People we don’t even know. I worry that some of these women I’ve painted don’t “look “ the way they should. But that’s a distraction from the enemy. I know I didn’t get this gift from myself and I know that God has a plan for me painting these women. Martha also had so much Faith. She knew who Jesus was and the miracles only He could do. (John 11) Just like Martha I have Faith that His timing is perfect and He is working through me to make these women who are sometimes just not talked about enough shine!
I hope you enjoy Martha and remember to just listen and enjoy what’s right in front of you.
Desert Glow by Fred Kuhlman
When I look at this desert scene, what strikes me isn’t the emptiness but the sheer amount of beauty hiding in plain sight. A place most people would write off as barren ends up being full of subtle detail once you slow down enough to see it. Every ridge, every shadow, every shift in color is doing something interesting. That’s part of why I wanted to paint it — because even a landscape this desolate is worthy of contemplation. For an artist, it becomes an endless invitation: one more brush stroke to catch the way light slips across a rock face, one more adjustment to get the warmth of the sand just right, one more attempt to honor the way the world shows off when you’re paying attention.
So, the meaning of the piece, at least for me, comes from that combination of beauty, stillness, and the slow realization that even the “empty” parts of the world aren’t empty at all. They’re full of texture, history, and quiet truths that don’t announce themselves. The painting is my attempt to capture that — not perfectly, because you never really can — but honestly. And for me, there’s also a simple nod to God in all of this: the idea that such beauty exists even in an out‑of‑the‑way place says something about the care and imagination beyond the world we see every day.

Destiny on the Pad by Lucas Bowman
On April 1, 2026, at 6:35 p.m. EDT, Artemis II began its journey to the Moon as it lifted off from Launch Complex 39B at Kennedy Space Center. The mission became one of the most highly anticipated launches in modern spaceflight, breaking numerous streaming records for NASA as millions of people around the world watched four astronauts travel beyond low Earth orbit and around the Moon for the first time in more than fifty years.
I remember listening to Charlie Thompson conduct the final go no-go poll and thinking to myself, “This is it”. What happened next was the fastest ten minutes of my life as the countdown clock resumed and the engines roared to life. I remember the tension in the room during the six-minute communications blackout as the Orion spacecraft plunged through Earth’s atmosphere, surrounded by superheated plasma as it traveled nearly 24,000 miles per hour. Then came the overwhelming relief of watching the parachutes deploy before landing safely in the Pacific Ocean and watching the crew exit. More importantly, I remember that in all those moments, I was not the only one. Friends, family, and countless others from all over the world came together to watch it. It’s amazing to me how in those moments it was not a NASA achievement, not even an American achievement, but a testament of humanity’s desire to explore and our ability to unite around a common goal.
Like many others, I was overly optimistic that it would launch during the original window in early February 2026. While I wasn’t there for the launch, I was still able to see Artemis II as it patiently waited on the launch pad. This photo captures Artemis II as it patiently waited on the launch pad, destined for its mission around the Moon. The title, Destiny on the Pad, reflects the idea that destiny is rarely a single defining moment. Instead, it is built through preparation, perseverance, and the work of countless people. This rocket, at the moment I took the photo, hadn’t fulfilled its mission, yet everything about it points toward the future. It stands ready, carrying not only four astronauts, but decades of knowledge, innovation, and hope for the future.
To me, this photograph represents optimism. In a world often focused on division and uncertainty, space exploration time and time again offers a different perspective. It reminds us that humanity truly is capable of extraordinary achievements when we come together and work towards a common goal. This image is not about the launch, it’s about possibility. It is about standing at the edge of tomorrow, knowing that the next chapter of human exploration is ready to begin.
Genesis I, Genesis II by Alan Hevelone
Green House by Derek Crownover
I originally created “Green House” in a sketch form with a blue ballpoint pen. This, funny enough, is how a lot of my works get their beginnings. Doodles on a page that I decide deserve something more. It was a few years before I would become a parent when I created this, but I know now I was drawing what I imagined my daughter might be like. Somehow, I always believed I was destined to raise a girl and I think this piece includes all the things I wanted to succeed at teaching. Like an appreciation for the things people create, and also the arts that they pour themselves into. Also, an appreciation for the natural world and the beauty it holds. I imagined a fiery spirit with big ambitions.
Pair this with my love of collecting and nurturing plants, and the room’s design came together naturally. Eventually I did become a dad, but just as life keeps you guessing it was to a little boy. Then just as I had embraced having a son and all the joys and lessons that came with that, our daughter arrived. Now I look at this piece and I see both of them. Well-loved, Wild, and hopefully full of kindness and adventurous hearts. While parenthood is rarely as peaceful as this depiction, it’s a reminder of the things I find important and I hope it gives anyone reading this a warm feeling too.

Cloud By Day, Fire By Night by Debra J Edwards
HISTORY:
We all know the Biblical account of Israel, God’s chosen people, being enslaved by the Egyptians, as recorded in Exodus. God heard his people crying out for deliverance from the harsh oppression and bondage, and chose Moses to lead Israel to freedom. LET MY PEOPLE GO! After God sent many judgements and plagues on Egypt, Pharaoh relented. Israel was released, and the amazing miracle at the Red Sea took place. God led them through the wilderness with a cloud by day and a pillar of fire by night as they camped around the tabernacle.
TODAY:
My interpretation of these scenes is done in a more contemporary, stylized manner signifying that God still leads his people in contemporary society, day and night. Many people feel they are in bondage now under harsh governmental controls including attempts to steal our freedoms away, inflation, economic instability, and unpopular social values being forced upon us, as well as corrupt leadership in many high offices, and so much more. People are once again crying out for relief from oppression. LET MY PEOPLE GO! God brought deliverance and restoration before – He can do it again!
