A dove representing the Holy Spirit.

The design is built around the text 'Some fell into good soil which is represented by the ripe crop of barley. This central image expands into a variety of widths of lead calmes that complement the text in a spiral like motion. The five words of the text dominate the design and are placed strategically and significantly to encourage a greater understanding of their meaning. Some faces upwards towards the apex of the window - not all are chosen. Fell - topples towards the ground - neither in one realm or another. Into - our place here on, and part of, the earth. Good - recognizes the fertility of the soil. Soil - represents the medium for growth - both physical and spiritual Helen Whittaker 2009
