The word “icon” means a holy image to which special veneration is given. Religious icons are commonly referred to as “windows to heaven.” But, icons are not just pieces of nice artwork. They are meant to be prayed with. They allow us to focus our prayer using our senses. Praying with an icon can allow us the glimpse into the divine that many of us are hungry for. Because they reflect sacred mysteries, they can be venerated. The best iconographers are not famous artists, but holy saints. In this exclusive Focus episode, we interview expert iconographers, go inside a private icon writing retreat, and experience the creation and finally the blessing of this prayerful art.
