With an invitation in 3 Nephi 12:24, Christ
calls, "Come unto me with full purpose of heart, and I will receive
you." In Taylor’s image, Christ’s arms are open to a crowd, individuals
who direct their gaze to Him. The disciples’ clothing is based on fabric
patterns from all over the world, indicating the worldwide response to that
invitation.
"As we turn our hearts to Jesus Christ, we have greater love for those around us and come together as a people, becoming one in Him." —Emma Taylor
