When Myra Kahn Adams first saw a crucifix modeled after the Shroud of Turin in a church in Harper’s Ferry, she had no idea it would launch a decades-long journey into faith, mystery, and evangelization. Now the Executive Director of the National Shroud of Turin Exhibit, Myra is working toward a permanent Shroud display in Washington, D.C., and she has big news to share at the upcoming Shroud 2025 Conference.
In this episode of The Backstory on the Shroud of Turin, Myra explains how the Shroud changed her life—not just intellectually but spiritually. As a Jewish convert to Catholicism, she sees the Shroud as more than a relic; it’s a mirror of the Gospels and a physical echo of Jesus Christ’s suffering, death, and Resurrection.
She also discusses how the Shroud serves today’s world much like it did for “Doubting Thomas.” For those who need to see in order to believe, the Shroud offers powerful, tangible testimony. Myra’s work with the National Exhibit aims to spread awareness, educate the public, and let viewers decide for themselves.
Don’t miss this personal and passionate conversation about why the Shroud still matters—and how it can lead others to Christ.
