Reflections of Christ exhibit

Thanks to Brian Duffin with Millenial Star for asking me to write a guest blog about the Reflections of Christ exhibit at the Arizona Temple Visitors' Center.
That guest blog was posted this morning, so check it out at: http://www.millennialstar.org/2008/03/04/guest-post-reflections-of-christ-if-you-build-it-they-will-come/
Writing that post gave me a great opportunity to reflect on the exhibit and the fabulous offering it represents. From Mark Mabry's fabulous photography, to the amazingly well-done documentary by Cameron Trejo, to the soul-inspiring music by Clyde Bawden and Jason Barney--the combination would be unsurpassed if judged by artistic merits alone. Then, you add in the sacrifice, love for the Savior and testimony of his eternal nature that these artists and the 100 other volunteers infused into every detail--and what you have is so much more than an exhibit. It's an experience that changes perspectives, softens hearts and leaves viewers better for having taken the time to look at their Savior from a new perspective.
Thanks to Mark and all.
