About the front cover image: Detail from the mid-16th Century "The faith of Thomas" icon by Theophanes the Cretan housed in Stavronikita Monastery, Mt. Athos, Greece. The icon depicts Christ standing in the midst of the disciples. Jesus has appeared to the eleven in the upper room, and here is inviting Thomas to come and examine the wounds in His hands and His side. The direction of His gaze suggests Jesus is also looking at us and inviting each of us to examine and determine the truth of His Gospel.
