Christian artist, J.L. Shively spent thirty-six years living homeless on the road in campers sharing his testimony and his art in churches and events across the United States and parts of Canada. God took a troubled teenager, filled him with new life in Jesus and changed the young artist's ambitions to be the world's greatest seascape painter to become a creative evangelist for the Lord. This book is not only a collection of art that illustrates God's word, encourages and inspires; it is an expression of the artist's heart who has identified with suffering, the needs of the poor and has rejoiced in the beauty of God's creation. "The Art of J.L. Shively - Art with a Message" presents four galleries featuring children, the Gospel, The Least of These and animals and narture.
