- The Gropper Windows -- Genesis in
Glass
http://www.LGrossman.com/gropper.htm
[A series of five stained-glass windows in the Gottlieb Community Hall of the
West Suburban Temple Har Zion in River Forest, Illinois. The themes
artistically expressed in the windows are from In the Beginning (in
Greek = Genesis), the first book of the Hebrew Bible. These are
remarkable windows, and they are available on the World-Wide Web thanks to the
creativity of Mr. Leonard Grossman, a self-described sometime modem junkie.]

Christ

[Information and supporting resources concerning a several-hour program that
was intended to be a "guide to the new and controversial historical evidence
which challenges familiar assumptions about the life of Jesus and the epic rise
of Christianity." In effect, the program conveyed to a general audience what is
standard in university and many seminary courses on early Christianity, and did
it well.]
