Contemporary American Artist Janet McKenzie has committed her life and art to celebrating women's lives and gifts. Best-known for her "Jesus of the People," the controversial winner of the National Catholic reporter's Jesus 2000 international competition, McKenzie's work boldly confronts and confounds stereotypical thinking with luminous and haunting imagery.
Here, twenty-eight of McKenzie's works, along with accompanying reflections by some of the world's best-known women writers, show how holiness empowers women, and how women work to bring about the reign of God. Art and text follow the life of Jesus through women's stories: those of his mother, his disciples, and all who carried his message to the world.
