We finished our last 2 performances before 3 days off! We're hanging out in Dayton today, going to a town called Yellow Springs, which is a town they say never left the 60's, so that should be interesting.
I was reminded also of how embarrased I am sometimes, when I'm trying to show others how being a Christian doesn't mean you're a crazy religious person or an over-the-top, TBN kind of Christian. But sometimes, it's tough to defend your beliefs when you see the BIGGEST JESUS SCULPTURE IN AMERICA while you're driving down the highway. What do you say? I was speechless. There was nothing I could say to defend that sculpture. Especially when nicknames like, "Drowning Jesus" and "Touchdown Jesus" are involved. See picture below:
So tomorrow we're driving to Milwaukee, WI for 3 days off!
I am not a religious person, but I LOVE this statue lol! To me it is Americana kitsch at it's best or worst, depending how you look at it. My daughter took the most amazing photo of it, there were little sparrows on each of his fingers. anyway I don't think one should have to defend their beliefs :)
ReplyDeleteHope you enjoyed your visit to Yellow Springs.
We have been to Yellow Springs many times! How was it? Very new agey. Touchdown Jesus-now that's something your dad would say. lol
