Nativity Star
Nativity Star, the beautiful artwork on the cover, was created by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Christian artist Safina Stewart. The artwork’s simplicity gives clear focus to the magnificence of the Holy God and the vulnerability of Jesus as a tiny baby. In the centre are the Aboriginal U-shaped symbols of a woman and man nurturing a newborn baby. This represents Mary and Joseph caring for Jesus. Around them is the glow of the magnificent star of Bethlehem.
The Indigenous pattern work used to form the star symbolises land and water. The patterned star represents the unexplainable, enigmatic mysterythat the God of glory becomes like us and walks these sacred lands with us. that the God of glory becomes like us and walks these sacred lands with us.
