FAITH & WORKS // II:XIV–XXVI

Inspired by James 2:14–26, this original composition unites Scripture, iconography, and the Christian remembrance of death. Presented in an aged manuscript style, it contrasts St. James' warning against a dead faith with the enduring witness of a monk whose life of faith and ascetic labor continues to testify even after death. A devotional meditation on the inseparable union of faith and works.

    Who We Are

    Askesis exists to help build a Christian counterculture.The world trains us in distraction, comfort, and self-will. The Church trains us in prayer, discipline, repentance, and communion with God.Our mission is to create apparel, art, and media that encourage Christians to invite God into every hour of life and to remember that our citizenship is in heaven.The name Askesis comes from the Greek: training, discipline, spiritual exercise.

    THE RULE

    WE DO NOT DRIFT.WE DO NOT CONFORM.
    WE TRAIN THE WILL
    AGAINST COMFORT.
    AGAINST DISTRACTION.
    AGAINST DISSOLUTION.
