Tippy Tuesday

Once again, you can click on the image to enlarge it.

While traveling home from our extended 4 day Labor Day weekend, we passed this magnificent statue (and church) their sign said this:

"Warning: exposure to the Son may PREVENT burning"

and so consider this is your "tip" for the week.

Here are some facts on the statue that you may find interesting:

• Height: 62'

• The project was constructed in Florida, cut into sections and trucked to Monroe Ohio to be reassembled on-site at SRC. (Solid Rock Church)



• Designer: Brad Coriel Artist/sculptor: James Lynch



• Over 8000 man-hours in development and installation



• Reportedly the "King of Kings" is the largest sculpture of Christ in America.
