Jesus of the Week, Web site review by Julie Madsen
If the speculations of some Bible historians are correct, Jesus loved a good yuk as much as the next person. And if His sense of humor included a knack for some silly self-deprecation, He's probably hootin' it up looking at some of these depictions of Him on the Jesus of the Week site. Tongue-in-cheek pranksterism and some good old blasphemy inspired these tributes to the Son of God, from Jesus-as-a-beer-spokesperson to a rippling-muscled, Fabio-esque savior (not what most communion goers think about as the 'Body of Christ.')
