Love Drawn Here, 2025

Prophetic Artwork

Jaron Mackey

​

The prophetic artwork displayed in our sanctuary tonight was prayerfully created in advance as an offering to this Christmas Eve worship. Rather than illustrating a single moment, the painting reflects a spirit-led response to the season of Advent and the mystery of Christmas.

​​

Through movement, color, and light, the artwork points to the truth of the Incarnation—that God’s love is continually being drawn into the world. The abstract forms invite reflection rather than explanation, allowing each viewer to encounter the message in a personal way: divine love taking shape, breaking into darkness, and dwelling among us.

​​

As you gaze upon the painting, you are invited to consider where love has been drawn into your life this season—and where God may be calling you to embody that love beyond this place.
