Jerry Evenrud is a musician and art collector who has
collected artwork depicting images of the Prodigal Son for more
than 30 years. The fruit of his labors, now the world’s largest
known collection of images of the Prodigal Son parable, encompasses works from
1540 to 2005. In this beautiful, 199-page, full-color
volume, the collection reveals the desire of artists to
delve into the meaning of the parable, conveying that meaning
to others. Each image from the collection is accompanied by a reflection written by Rev. Robert Brusic,
Pastor Emeritus of Luther Seminary.
"Brusic has favored us with crisp and witty descriptions of
the art that fairly crackle with insight as he leads us through
the intricacies of Jerry Evenrud's unique collection...Buy this
book for the marvelous art, but savor the scintillating
commentary."
- Mark A. Throntveit, Book Editor, Word & World
