Extreme makeover: Jesus edition
Most artwork and figurines depict Jesus in the traditional robes of His day, but a Los Angeles native, Eric Dyson has changed all that.
He’s come up with We Are Fishermen, a collection of “Christ-like” figurines with what his promotional materials call an “extreme Hollywood makeover.”
The figurines, available at www.wearefishermen.com depict several looks. In one the Christ-like figure is wearing jeans and riding a motorcycle and in another he’s shown dribbling a soccer ball, dressed in soccer shorts and cleats.
In a news release, Dyson said he came up with the idea after the loss of his father and Pope John Paul II, two men he loved dearly. When he asked why the answer came from within: ”I am always with you.”
He said he came up with the figurines to inspire people and let them know that God is always with them as they live life to the fullest.
