Rev. Dr. John F. Ross discusses the Saint John's Bible, sacred art, and religious imagination.
He is the Executive Director of The Saint John’s Bible Heritage Program at Saint John’s University in Collegeville, Minnesota. He has also served as a United Church of Christ (UCC) pastor for 30 years.
The Saint John’s Bible is the first handwritten, illuminated Bible in more than 500 years and includes more than 160 original illuminations. The Heritage Edition of The Saint John’s Bible is the only full-size, illuminated, fine art edition that will ever be produced. In all, only 299 seven-volume sets have been created.
The Heritage Program is an international initiative for individuals and institutions to explore the artistic and spiritual beauty of The Saint John’s Bible. Learn how this sacred art can be enjoyed in your community now and for generations to come. Please contact Rev. Dr. Ross at jross001@csbsju.edu or by calling 320-363-3209.
