“Joni Eareckson Tada shares the story behind her 1999 portray Christmas Eve Night time. The paintings captures a heat, glowing gentle coming from a mountain church on a chilly, icy Christmas Eve. Impressed by Maxfield Parrish’s use of cool blue and white tones, Joni contrasts the frigid scene with a welcoming heat emanating from the church home windows, inviting the viewer into the consolation and pleasure of God’s home. The portray displays the great thing about religious hospitality, reminding us of the nice and cozy welcome and love God prolonged to humanity by way of the beginning of his Son Jesus.
