photo in need of a caption

February 29, 2012 · 36 comments

didn’t have time to write a post for today, but there’s always time for a photo in need of a caption. especially when alert readers like kevin winningham send you awesome photos like this one. hey, this one could have brought about a revival of my old “jesus junk of the month” posts!

bring it!

CONTENDERS!

Dave Reiss
He decended into shell.

Stephen
Shell we pray
Jesus’ favorite band was David Chowder
Led like a clam to the slaughter
The one that got away was this big

Tim Gleason
Jesus de Milo

HeidiRenee
Jesus on the half shell

jason
she sells Je-shells by the seashore…

Tony Roos
Jesus the Savior of the sole.

Seth
“Just as I clam, without one plea,”
“behold, the clam of God”
“Do nothing out of Shellfish ambition”

Matt N
Lead us not into crustaceans…

and the winner is…
this one was really tough for me to call! many of these made me literally laugh out loud.

but i think my fav is Tim Gleason’s “Jesus de Milo”. So, tim, i applaud you, toast you, and tip my hat to you (well, i would if i were wearing a hat). your prize: free entrance into the Simply Youth Ministry Conference, starting only moments ago in Louisville, KY!**

**conditions: you must have previously paid for registration, and must already be there. so, basically, while the event will surely be awesome, this prize sucks.

“and Jesus asked his disciples, “what did the sea say to the boat?” The disciples said nothing but looked back and forth at one another. “nothing. It waved.” said Jesus as he walked away disgusted.”

But I have noticed that during
the most trying periods of my life
there have only been one
set of footprints in the sand.
Why, when I needed you most,
you have not been there for me?”

The Lord replied,
“The times when you have
seen only one set of footprints,
is when I carried you, BECAUSE YOU STEPPED ON ANOTHER ONE OF THOSE SHELLS AGAIN.”

Landon MacDonald February 29, 2012 at 2:48 pm

Tim Gleason March 5, 2012 at 1:19 pm

Alas, I was not in Louisville nor had I previously paid for a registration. But given the very high quality of the entries, I take it as an honor simply to be chosen. Thanks for the laughs. And I hope you had a great conference.
