There is a contingent here that believes Peter was that β€œRock.”

LOL. Paul declares otherwise.

In the art of Hi Qi I see the influence of Chagall and Picasso. The colors are as brilliant as those of stained glass windows. Great art.
Thank you, Dan, as always.

He Qi makes me laugh every time I see one of his works. No one else has that effect on me.

I am a huge fan of He Qi as well! His art has much of the same effect as stained glass, as you mentioned. I really like the Larson at the end as well. ]

This entire story gives another reference to the Garden of Eden with the source becoming the four great rivers, and to the river in New Jerusalem…in each case the Tree of Life (Jesus on the cross, just to take it perhaps a step too far) sets its roots around the river that has only The Father as its source.

Yesterday I finally found out how to pronounce his name: Ho Chi, Thanks, Scott, from another fan of Qi.

Moses strikes the rock and out of that Rock came Living Water
