Welcome to Go Show & Tell – a ministry of art and light

NT Wright says in one of his books, “when people cease to be surrounded by beauty, they cease to hope.”

You don’t have to look very far to see that no one is exempt from the problems of everyday life. Since the dawn of creation mankind has searched for answers to life’s challenges, while artisans from various persuasions have produced icons and images as expressions of Divine hope. As I’ve spent time behind the viewfinder of my camera seeing what lay before me, I’ve realized there is more to a photograph than a mere image - there’s a story waiting to be told. His story, or maybe your story.

Therefore, my aim is to listen to the voice of the Creator and capture His creation in order to encourage, convict, and inspire others through our body of work. And, help restore the arts and imagination within the church.

Distinctions is about connecting the heart with the head, the imagination with the Word. Let’s face it, all of us see in different ways – some through text and some through image. Neither is exclusive of the other. My aim through each Distinction title is to unite both. For too long we’ve chosen sides between the written Word and visual art (or any other art form).

Scripture is God’s story. And in it are volumes of narratives, parables, songs, and poetry, all creatively communicating His truth. Can you read one of Jesus’ parables and not picture in your mind what the scene looked like? I hardly doubt it. That’s why God gave you an imagination – to see into His story. Better yet, to see Him! He has made Himself known. Are you looking?

So – go to our homepage – www.halmoran.com and click on our gallery. Then open one of our Distinctions titles and make the connection. Place yourself on the edge of the Red Sea like Moses, or at the foot of the cross on the Friday “they” call Good. Go ahead and unite your heart with your head, and the next time you open the Word maybe your own image will come to mind.

We hope you find the images pleasing and the words encouraging. For more information check out our links at left.
