Re-creation, re-storation, re-conciliation, re-demption: These are all found in the beauty of the Jesus story. This blog is about living those things out and wrestling with their implications for every aspect of life.

Facelift for the Lady
Well, I think the French will be mad about this one.
But if all mega churches spent their money in this way, I guarantee the world would be a better place.
Just out of curiosity, how does a statue that, most likely, was created with deliberate offensiveness in mind (based upon the newspaper ads), make the world a better place?
I'm going with Jordan's "sad" verdict...wtih perhaps a hint of tragedy adjectively attached.
everyone who walks by this glorious statue will be filled with an overwhelming sense of "whoa, that's green" and fall on their faces. they'll go home to their loved ones and give them big hugs. and they may even give an arch card to a homeless dude before they get home.

in all reality i think it was a waste of money.
Whatever, that thing is awesome! You guys ever see the monstrous "arm of god at the church outside of Cincinnati? Wow. 'nuff said
