Publisher Description
The Eternal Cycle of Life: An Illustrated Sermon Series explores significant themes in human development—birth, coming of age, parenting, death, and resurrection—through beautiful artwork and wise words of grace and encouragement. Utilizing the graphic novel form in an innovative way, this work brings to life four of Hayes' sermons. It looks closely at challenging issues like connection, intimacy, faith, and fragility through a theological lens, inviting readers to reflect on how they live out the cycle of life in the midst of Christian community.
