Easter is Coming...

***The Jesus in Love blog referred to at the end of this post is running the Passion artwork for Holy Week again. I don't know if this is new art or a rerun of last year's - but I recommend it to you all!***



...so it's time for some "Passion of the Tchotchke!" (Besides, things have been way too serious around here...)

See the most amazing (well, some are amazingly hideous) Holy Week "art" here. And may the spirit of life embrace you and lift you up as you fall down laughing... The blogger who posted these says all it in her caption for one item: "I don't know how to love this."

A seminary acquaintance alerted me (and others) to this site a few years ago, and I like to share it every year. Because, you know, things get a little crazy around church this time of year. We also need reminding to take ourselves a little more lightly, as well.

For those desiring more serious fare, I recommend heading over to Kittredge Cherry's blog, "Jesus in Love," and checking out her recent post on photographer Robert Recker's series depicting the Passion of Christ. You can also go back to mid-March of last year and take a look at the art she posted for Holy Week, which is stunning.
