In my last post, I wrote about my "Running with Jesus" friend at White Rock. While looking for an image to include for that post, I ran across some Jesus kitsch that I thought I'd pass along. I was reminded of the time when I was 12 and decided I would be a jogger. I used my lawn mowing money to by some Nike running shoes with the waffle soles. I saw a t-shirt in the Christian bookstore in the mall with a turtle wearing a sweatband that read "Jogging for Jesus." I asked for the shirt for my birthday, but I didn't get it. I wish I could find a picture of that shirt! Here are some more modern interpretations of the theme.

| Looks like Jesus is in the lead. |

Does Jesus need to stretch before running?
He must have been pretty fit, walking everywhere he went.
Did people in the first century have a clue about stretching?
If Jesus stretched after a day's walking up toward Jerusalem, the disciples would probably have thought he was nuts. |

| Not a very good picture. It says, "Jesus is my running buddy." You can get this on key chains, shirts, mugs, bags, etc. at Zazzle.com. Jesus is a good running buddy. He never gets too far ahead or behind, doesn't care if you fart, and will always listen. |

| Here's another view of the one from the last blog. Cute? Dumb? Silly? Inspiring? You be the judge. |
