Click here to read about this curated image collection created by Roy T. Wise.
In order to facilitate the efforts of churches to identify images from the Digital Image Archive for use with the readings of the Revised Common Lectionary, Roy T. Wise, a graduate of Lutheran Theological Southern Seminary and secretary for the Standing Advisory Committee for the Kessler Reformation Collection, has selected these images from the Digital Image Archive for each week's readings. If we don't have images for a particular passage, that passage is not shown. For a complete list of the passages for a particular week, please go to Textweek. The Biblical texts are provided by the Oremus Project.
NOTE: The images on this web site are available for use in research, teaching, and private study, as well as in church activities such as Bible classes, worship services/programs, sermon illustrations, or church bulletins. For such purposes, you may reproduce (print, make photocopies, or download) materials from this web site without prior permission, but we ask that you credit the usage with the following text: Courtesy of the Digital Image Archive, Pitts Theology Library, Candler School of Theology, Emory University.
