our Chistian sedentary ways
Hey, Jack, the roads are a jungle!
(The name Jack could represent anyone, particularly a Christian who goes to church in his SUV) The Urban Road Is A Dangerous Place A feisty octogenarian is unrepentantly jaywalking in front of my car. He’s got a walker, and he’s hacking away with it, as if clearing a path through the undergrowth with a machete. I pull to the stop and watch as he progresses toward the opposite curb. I confess to an admiration of his guts and his energy. I think about our society’s sedentary ways and hold this man up as an example: We just don’t have an excuse to sit on our duffs when Jack (as I imagine he is called) is out here, braving the urban jungle! http://www.npr.org/templates/story/s...20579902&ps=rs |
