There’s no question that God is the supreme designer in the universe. His engineering prowess is routinely displayed everywhere we look. But sometimes lost in scientific studies of the water cycle’s efficiency, the skeletal system of a hummingbird, or the inconceivable power of the human brain is the fact that the Lord is also the foremost artist in all of creation…and His proficient use of color, texture, and shape overshadow the talents of any painter, illustrator or sculptor.

This month, we’re celebrating a specific masterpiece in the great gallery of the created order: the magnificent mural that covers the exterior of the planet we call home.

With the aid of photos taken by astronauts aboard the Space Shuttle, the International Space Station, and several unmanned satellites, we’ve produced a brief seven-minute exploration of the beauty and artistry displayed from vantage points 200 miles above the Earth. It’s a tour de force painted—not with oils or watercolors—but with mountain ranges, oceans, rivers, glaciers and clouds.

We hope you enjoy our newest John 10:10 Project video, God’s Gallery. Please share it with anyone who you think may need a jolt of wonder or a moment of thoughtful reflection upon the maker of heaven and Earth.

About the Author

The John 10:10 Project
WHAT IS THE JOHN 10:10 PROJECT? Contrary to wishful thinking, the Christian life isn’t a free pass to Disneyland. In reality, it can often seem more like a minefield laced with fear, disappointment, anxiety and doubt. Yet, in John 10:10 Jesus promised anyone who follows him the opportunity to know an “abundant” (i.e. blessed, satisfying, meaningful) life. Now, he didn’t say this abundant life would be circumstantially easy (check out the apostles in the book of Acts: tortured, imprisoned, crucified). But Jesus did offer us genuine hope, joy, purpose and inner peace that surpasses all understanding – even when our roof leaks like a sieve or one of our friends battles cancer. So, how do we experience this abundant life when everyday life is often so difficult? Many ideas have been proposed and the best seem to share a similar conclusion: the better we know Jesus, the more we’ll trust him. Trust leads to faith, and faith leads to a life empowered and enriched by the Holy Spirit. The films that comprise THE JOHN 10:10 PROJECT were produced to help nurture a deeper understanding of God. Each 4-10 minute video explores a facet of the Lord’s character, promises and power. Think of them as small stepping stones on your pathway to a more abundant Christian life. Each film in this collection is structured for use in personal devotions, Bible studies, outreach and corporate worship. We hope you will find them helpful on your journey.
