Ice Jesus







Dear God,
Is there something we're missing here? What is the spiritual connection with your son and ice hockey? Where's the obsession? It can't be solely from the English translation of scripture and the metaphor of the 'save,' can it? Is Jesus the goalie of the Universe? Are you the coach? Are we all fans with heavy bets riding on the game?

Or is it just because sports are all the rage these days? Sports fans idolize their favorite players ... but God-fearing sports players project their idols into their favorite sports AS players? This is all very confusing for us. Again-why ice hockey?

Holding my hat,

Kyle in Illinois, Age 23
