The Temptation of Jesus

Basilica of St. Mark, Venice "The Temptation of Christ" 12th Century

Arts and Faith is a ministry of Loyola Press that draws on paintings, frescos, altar pieces, mosaics and other works of art in order to reflect, meditate and consider the spiritual lessons of the Gospels.   In this engaging video, the temptation of Jesus is depicted from a magnificent mosaic in Venice.  Listen and consider the symbols that depict Christ and the devil's temptation as the mosaic encourages us to be cast as the storyteller, and we are challenged to share the good news with others.  Then visit the Arts and Faith web site to listen to all the Lenten meditations and more resources available for Lent from this great site.
