(e)mergent Voyageurs

Hey there,

As you can probably see, I have not regularly blogged at this address for some time.  However, I am still getting a fair bit of traffic here.  I am now blogging at my new site A Living Alternative, Our Missional Pilgrimage.  I would greatly appreciate it if you headed over there to take a look.

Also, if you have a blog, I would appreciate any linkage.  Believe it or not, by doing so, you will be helping support our inner city ministry & church plant.  Thanks!

Peace,
Jamie Arpin-Ricci

Next week I will be teaching on our DTS on the topic of Missional Community, one of my deepest passions. Part of my teaching, which focuses on the idea that our understanding of Jesus shapes the nature of the community we become, I show a slide show of over a hundred images of Jesus. They are drawn from a broad spectrum, from iconography to parody. Over the next few Fridays, I want to use this art reflection time to look at some of the images and get your feedback.

While I do not know the name or artist of the above piece, it always hits me hard. I will hold back from sharing here and do so later in the comment section. However, I want to hear from you.

What does this painting say to you? How does it make you feel? Where do we go with what glean from it?
