Janis Winchester’s journey with the Shroud of Turin is one marked by curiosity, research, and deepening faith. In this new episode of The Backstory on the Shroud of Turin, Janis recounts her initial interest in the Shroud and how a chance encounter at a St. Louis conference sparked a years-long pursuit of the truth.
She dove into books, traveled across the U.S., Europe, and Asia, and engaged with top experts in the field. Among them was Kevin Moran, who introduced her to VP8 image analysis—a tool that helped Janis witness the Shroud’s depth and clarity in new ways. Particularly moving was her discovery of the blood from the lance wound, which confirmed for her the uniqueness and authenticity of the image.
More than a historical curiosity, the Shroud has become for Janis a powerful tool for sharing the love of Jesus Christ. In her talk at the Shroud 2025 Conference, she will explore how the image mirrors the peace, forgiveness, and purpose found in the Gospels. For those seeking to understand the evidence and grow in faith, her story offers a compelling invitation.
