A symbol appeared in the sky before one of the most consequential battles in Roman history. Its story would become inseparable from one of Christianity’s most ancient symbols. 🧵

Art shapes our theology more than we realize. It’s not merely aesthetics or something “out there.” Pageau is once again correct.

Hey, I love me a Raphael as much as the next guy, but these little ones have done more damage to Christianity than Richard Dawkins.

Did you know Clement of Rome may be the same Clement Paul mentions by name in Philippians 4:3? Clement of Rome wasn’t centuries removed from the Apostles. He lived in their world.

Clement’s letter wasn’t read once and forgotten. Around AD 170, the bishop of Corinth tells us they were still reading it publicly when the church gathered.

St. Basil the Great is remembered as one of the most influential theologians of the early Church. But his theology wasn’t confined to books and sermons. 👇

When it feels like society is crumbling and Rome is burning, it’s important to remember Augustine. Earthly kingdoms come and go. But the City of God endures forever under the reign of Christ.

October is Reformation Month, so it seems like a good time to recover some Protestant symbolism. You may recognize the rose as an emblem associated with Lutherans but never realized how much thought Luther put into its design to reflect the truth of the Gospel.

Part of what I want to do with Crucilore is rediscover this kind of visual language developed throughout Christendom, and recover the beauty that ultimately points us to Christ. Keep discovering your inheritance! Josh
