Words fail me as to how cool this is. Click here to enjoy.
Update – Can I just point out to those who think that I made this, I didn’t. It’s doing the rounds on the web at the moment, I just uploaded it onto the site to let you share the joy. I wish I’d made it, and I wish I’d also been smart enough to do this as well.

Aber mit der Heimat
geht man immer herum,
durch die Welt,
dort und dort
Peter Handke
No one could describe
the Word of the Father;
but when He took flesh from you, O Theotokos,
He consented to be described, and restored the fallen image to its former beauty.
We confess and proclaim our salvation in word and image.
Kontakion of the Triumph of Orthodoxy
Almighty God, you have created the heavens and the earth and made us in your own image: teach us to discern your hand in all your works and your likeness in all your children; through Jesus Christ your Son our Lord, who with you and the Holy Spirit reigns supreme over all things, now and for ever.
But let all who take refuge in you rejoice; let them ever sing for joy, and spread your protection over them, that those who love your name may exult in you. For you bless the righteous, O LORD; you cover him with favor as with a shield. (Psalm 5:11-12, ESV)

Lol!!!
Now we know why you’ve been so quiet recently.
PS Is sketchy the new dodgy? Have I been missing out on the newest slang or is it an east Herts. peculiarity?

Peter, this is completely fabulous! Thanks so much for a fresh take on Holy Week… And all best at this amazing time of year.

Oh goodness – Made me chuckle and then think seriously…. Very good

Very good. Just a couple of missed “Jesus has changed his profile picture” opportunities (e.g. Emmaus), but really very good.

I saw this on GadgetVicar’s blog.
Really, really good. Thanks for taking the time to do it.

Great! Well apart from the time sequence being backwards (or rather incorrectly forwards if you see what I mean)

Do you know where it came from?

Sadly not, as we need to give major props to the author

Hey! I just thought I would “out” myself and my co-author on this piece. I am Nate and the co-author is Sharon. I am a college minister and she is a seminarian. Our facebook profile links are hidden in the pdf, as well as links to my blog.
Our intention in the Facebook Passion is three fold:
(a) To express all the funny stuff we have thought about regarding the Passion, but were afraid to talk about;
(b) For those who may be “bored” or “jaded” with the Passion story to look at it in a new way, and thus to think about it again from a different angle;
(c) As a subversive form of evangelism. There are people who may read that who would never read the actual Biblical narratives. And the mockery of Bart Ehrman is a ploy to show how that kind of Enlightenment-Empirical reading of the text just misses the point entirely…

And by the way… On behalf of both of us, thanks for all the kind comments “across the pond”.
