  • The Big Picture

    First, let me apologize for my long absence here. While life is good, as I love to say, it is also crammed with things other than writing and such like. But no excuses. On to the main course!

    To celebrate my return to blogland (and to sate the curiosity of those stumped by the riddle posted today on www.xanga.com/jared_katie), I present the big picture. This is the face of Aslan. He is my favorite fictional figure by far because of the deep and intentional Christ-ness he embodies.

    Aslan 01

    This is the Big Picture in its full setting on our wall.

    Allow this face to seep into your soul, the simple, direct, profound, challenging face of Jesus, represented by a fictional lion. I hope this inspires your depths as much as it does mine.

    Welcome back!   Busy??? What's that?   My first response to your riddle was "lion," second, "Oh yeah, Aslan!"  Blessings to ya, bro!

    Powerful picture!   It is one of the names of God, too, He is the Lion of Judah.  What awesomeness and wonder!  It made me think of His protection as well.
