I really like this. Catchy tune, thought provoking, and affirming of God's transcendence. Also...come on...awesome use of felt. Thank you for sharing!

Sad too that most of the characters, in the parade, etc., appear white.

I think it is Osama Bin Laden. The other figures in that section are almost all identifiable historical figures.

The Episcopal Café seeks to be an independent voice, reporting and reflecting on the Episcopal Church and the Anglican tradition. The Café is not a platform of advocacy, but it does aim to tell the story of the church from the perspective of Progressive Christianity. Our collective sympathy, as the Café, lies with the project of widening the circle of inclusion within the church and empowering all the baptized for the role to which they have been called as followers of Christ.

The opinions expressed at the Café are those of individual contributors, and, unless otherwise noted, should not be interpreted as official statements of a parish, diocese or other organization. The art and articles that appear here remain the property of their creators.
