Why not grope a statue if it could lead to love?
With the promise of finding love, would you kiss the lips and grope the intimate areas of a bronze statue?
Susanne Parker Loelius, the author of this week’s Modern Love essay, decided she would.
“Being a follower of Jesus comes with certain expectations of conduct and purity,” Ms. Loelius wrote. “But this was a statue, not to mention a cultural experience. Surely God could appreciate the comedy and spirit of the thing.”
You can read her essay, “To Find Love, Rub the (Bronze) Bulge,” below.
