Sunday Theology Talk - The Calling of Saint Matthew: Grace That Interrupts

Series Overview

In three monumental canvases, Caravaggio paints the drama of Matthew’s life as a story of grace—summoned from the shadows, inspired to speak God’s word, and strengthened to bear witness even unto death. The brush makes visible the divine light that breaks into human darkness with calling, guidance, and life beyond death.

Today’s Topic

At a tax collector’s table, in a dimly lit room, Christ’s hand extends toward Matthew, breaking open his world with a single gesture. Caravaggio captures the piercing interplay of light, gesture, and calling.
