Brown/Olive/Dark Skin Jesus! I Can't See It! Part ll
Look, there's Jesus!
Do you see a Caucasian man?
Some people say His skin color doesn't matter. Okay, If that's so, why should a picture of a dark skin Jesus stir up so much talk?
Do you grimmis and comment (in your mind or out loud- why is His skin color dark, or brown, or olive?) whenever you see an image of a dark skin Jesus? Uhm, I do not understand your reaction. So you're a scholar, educator, pastor, etc.; however, you dismiss the importance of helping other cultures or races to see themselves in the historical Jesus you teach about.
Please do the exercise again from Part I of this blog.
I have just said the name Jesus. You should visualize a person of color for a change or for the first time in your life.
Write and tell me about your experience with this exercise.
