Jesus in Alabaster By Mark Tulin Jesus appears from the lush green palms, a vision in alabaster, a chalky messiah, delivering a message of transcendence, speaking in parables, psalms, and beat poetry This Jesus has a different vibe, a rad dude from the California coast, laidback, groovy, and chill, more open to whatever He speaks like a surfer man, preaching about the gnarly waves, practicing yoga on a Manduka mat, tying his board on a roof rack But Jesus maintains his dignity, despite wearing Birkenstocks and a tie-dye Jesus meditates with his heart to the sun, with eyes closed, trying to get his bliss on. –––––––––– “I write so strangers can know me.” – the writer

A beautiful way of putting how He would appear in these modern times in this area. I would love to sit at His feet to listen to His preaching. Thank you for the stunning visual.
Love this.
