Come Unto Me: Illuminating the Savior's Life, Mission, Parables, and Miracles by Gayle Holdman. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9781629725130.

A decades worth of excitement built prior to the dedication and opening of the Rome Italy Temple in early 2019. Members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints from around the world and all others will be welcomed at the Rome Temple visitors center, where the first thing they will see is a stunning 20x7 art-glass window created by Tom Holdman and his associates at Holdman Studios. This beautiful masterpiece, entitled Come unto Me, was created to boldly testify that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, our Savior, Redeemer, and ultimate Healer. In this powerful, five-panel window, viewers discover the prodigal son, the good Samaritan, the woman reaching out to touch the Saviors robe, and many symbolic representations of Christs life and teachings. Like light through that stained-glass window, this book seeks to illuminate the mission, parables, and miracles of Christ. The authors, a team of respected gospel teachers, share stunning insights and new perspectives that allow for deeper understanding and, more important, greater application of Christs teachings in our lives today. Open the pages and see the beautiful depictions of the lost sheep, the lost coin, and the loaves and fishes. Then read the passages and find yourself in each parable and miracle. This book will help us all listen for--and respond to--Christs eternal pleas: "Come unto me."
