Built alongside a busy interstate in Iowa, this colossal statue is part of the Solid Rock "Mega-church" and their attempt to attract new followers straight from the highway. They describe their church as "A non-denominational, Bible-believing church pursuing Jesus Christ and the Spirit-filled life" (though hyphen-heavy, I have to admire their attention to grammar). Made from Styrofoam, Fibreglass and metal caging, and measuring 62 feet, this figure is believed to be the largest Jesus in the world. However, due to its placement within a water feature, this sculpture is commonly referred to as the 'drowning Jesus'.Wow.
Love love,
Centine.
