SteveN L. Doucette – Bible Paintings

This piece depicts the slain Egyptian and the feet of Moses standing over his body, and a Hebrew word meaning “to change” is written in the sand. Although this event in Biblical history is not a summary of the book as a whole, I feel…

John the Baptist was a true wilderness man who is described in the gospels of the New Testament as preaching in the wilderness. His clothes were made of crude materials like camel’s hair and he ate wild honey and even locusts. John’s appearance, even in…

There are several powerful messages and imagery in the book of Revelation. The sixth chapter speaks of a white horse and rider, a red horse and rider, a black horse and rider, and a pale horse and rider. Each of the riders has a weapon–bow,…

The first 2 verses of John chapter 2 are present in the main branch. “Vine” represents your life. Every aspect, yes every aspect, of your Christian life either glorifies God and brings you and other closer to Him, or is detrimental to the purpose He…
