Christ at the Home of Martha & Mary — Henry Ossawa Tanner
Elkins Portriat - Henry Ossawa Tanner
Christ and his disciples on the Sea of Galilee - Henry Ossawa Tanner
My effort has been to not only put the Biblical incident in the original setting … but at the same time give the human touch “which makes the whole world kin” and which ever remains the same.

The Baptism of Saint Augustine by Saint Ambrose - John De Rosen - Saint John’s Episcopal Church, Memphis
Some people, intent on severe disciplinary precepts, admonish us to rebuke the restless and not to give what is holy to dogs, to consider a despiser of the church as a heathen, to cut off from the united structure of the body the members who causes scandal. These may so disturb the peace of the church that they try prematurely to separate the wheat from the chaff before the proper time, and blinded by this pretext, they themselves then become separated from the unity of Christ.
— Saint Augustine — From Faith and Works 4.6
