The face of Jesus still matters because Christianity is not a religion of pure abstraction.
It is a faith centered on the Word made flesh: a God who entered history, took a human body, and became visible.

In The Many Faces of Jesus, the author traces how Christians across centuries and cultures have depicted Christ not to invent many Jesuses, but to contemplate the one Lord through many acts of seeing: the Good Shepherd of the catacombs, the majestic Pantocrator, the Crucified Christ, the Child Jesus devotions, the Sacred Heart and Divine Mercy, Christ the King in public space, the Black Nazarene and Black Christ traditions, Ethiopian and African Christian art, and the translated visual worlds of Asia.
