Ideas: WWJD?

Well, a new idea has come to our attention lately. We don’t see too many people sporting WWJD bracelets these days, and we want to know why this disturbing new trend is. A few years ago, it seemed pretty cool to ponder the question, “What would Jesus do?”, a hypothetical inquiry made apparent by the flashy, multi-colored wrist band seen on wrists around the country. The implication of this recent trend in abandoning WWJD bracelets seems to say that our colleagues, peers, mentors, and anyone else not wearing WWJD bracelets don’t really care what Jesus would do if he were living a contemporary earthly life. We, Chris and Kyle, have decided to buck this trendy apathetic attitude toward such a weighty rhetorical question and show what Jesus would do.
