These alabaster bookends feature Jesus proclaiming the Kingdom of God. Able to keep heavy books in line, they both organize and decorate your home. This pair of bookends makes the perfect personal gift for everyone as a reminder of our call to live out and spread the good news to others in our lives.

The original artwork is the oil painting Proclamation of the Kingdom by contemporary artist Jason Jenicke. 

The bookends are made from stone-cast alabaster here in our shop in Steubenville, Ohio. Alabaster is a building and decorating material created from the mineral gypsum that has been used since the time of the ancient Egyptian Pharaohs. It boasts an attractive smooth finish. 

Each measures roughly 6" x 8", including the 4"x 6" inset image plaque, and is 3" deep.

Text reads:

"After John had been arrested, Jesus ca,e to Galilee proclaiming the gospel of God:

'This is the time of fulfillment. the kingdom of God is at hand. Repent, and believe in the gospel.'

-Mark 1:14-15"
