This is one of the original napkins I put in my daughters’ lunches. You can see
the difference in drawing style and detail, but the ideas are still in the same vein.
I remember my college roommate and I went on a skiing trip with our church
group and one of the young leaders was this saint of a guy. He was happy,
courteous, positive, intellectual, kind, funny, helpful, yada yada yada. We
liked him quite a bit. By the end of the trip we made sure we didn’t sit anywhere
near him on the way home though since we felt like we were in the presence of
a cartoon saint with nothing we could relate to.
Portrayals of Jesus that way always made me feel far away not at all interested
in knowing more. Portrayals that brought out his humanity and his every day normalcy,
while still being a loving and cool guy made me want to find out more and listen
to what people said he had taught.
