Links

I have a couple of neat things to share today:

1. One of the brothers sent me this link to a collection of pictures of Jesus. Some are serious, some are silly, but, as I looked through them, I thought that all of them are provacative in their own way, and force upon us the query Jesus asks of all his disciples: Who do you say that I am?

The most reflection provoking ones for me are the Jesus made out of fruit and Jesus throwing Bush, Cheney and Greenspan out of the Temple. The one of Jesus showing off his tattoo seems silly at first, but then it really got me thinking about Jesus as God's revealer. But maybe that's because I just started a course on John's gospel.

2. Our friend Brother Lesser has a poem today about Francis, beauty, and Lady Poverty by Peter Maurin. I really liked it.

Enjoy!

Faithful, or even just thoughtful criticisms are always welcome. Uninformed rudeness to other posters or to the Lord and His Church is not.

I also reserve the right to reject comments promoting things like private revelations and fringe points of view, if it seems to me like they are being presented in a misleading way.

If you raise a disagreement with something I say but I do not respond, please do not feel slighted or insulted, or imagine that this automatically means I disagree or agree with you. It's just that I don't find the comment box to be a constructive medium for certain forms of debate.
