The website will be a curated collection of single designs by a  variety of international illustrators, artists and designers. The  collections will be released in an indefinite series of rounds. The goal  of these rounds will be to bring new light to well known Biblical  passages as well as introducing less familiar (or comfortable) content.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I encourage you to<a href=\"http:\/\/oldandnewproject.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\" decorated-link\" rel=\"nofollow\"> go over and check it out<\/a>.
