Thoughts? I’d be interested to hear both your initial reaction and how it settles with you.

Heavenly Sanctuary commissioned this image for their Good News Tour and I found it via Pastor Greg Boyd’s blog. He discusses some of the controversy in his post Washing Osama’s Feet.

From Pastor Boyd’s blog:

“This year they hired an artist named Lars Justinen from the Justinen Creative Group to paint the above picture to use on posters advertising their conference. Under this picture they had captions like ‘Follow the Leader,’ ‘God IS Great,’ and most accurately, ‘Jesus – Still Too Radical?’”

And lest we forget the words of Christ in John 13,
“Do you understand what I have done for you? You call me ‘Teacher’ and ‘Lord,’ and rightly so, for that is what I am. Now that I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also should wash one another’s feet. I have set you an example that you should do as I have done for you.”
