A reflection for Jn 1: 35-42 ... Come and see... (Jn 1: 39)
An elderly lady once sued the Disneyland organization because while in the parking lot, her three grandchildren were shocked to see three Disney characters get out of their costumes. These children were shell shocked to know that their favourite characters were not real but human beings dressed up in disguise!
What do we tell our next generation about our faith? Whom are we leading them to? Caricatures, models, statues, doctrines, structures... or the living person of Jesus Christ?
