Jason Engel is a frequent author/commentator on this blog, former ambassador of the Saint John's Bible, as well as a good friend. Recently, he did a fascinating interview on CBC Radio discussing my favorite 21st century illuminated bible and how it had the power to gather people from diverse situations around it.

Favourite 21st century illuminated bible? Is there more than one?!
The century is still young! :)
As a participant in the broadcast, the biggest take-away for me was that I had not heard the majority of these stories in this detail. Even given nearly 50 minutes of discussion by four people, I kept thinking of hundreds & hundreds of other things that could be said. Entire books have yet to be written, and if ever completed will still not accomplish more than a scratch on the surface of what will be told in time about both what took place to make the Saint John's Bible but also how people will interpret what they experience for many years to come.
I live in MN not to far from Collegeville, MN, yet I haven't had a chance to see this set of books. Shame on me.
