Did Jesus take the wheel?
Jonesborough resident Jim Stevens admits he’s not a particularly religious person, but even he is awed by what he has seen nearly every morning for the last couple of weeks on the driver’s side window of his Isuzu pickup truck.
It was two weeks ago today that an image, resembling the face of Jesus, made its first appearance on the window. Stevens, who said he has a “bum shoulder,” was having friends from Rogersville help move some items. He entered his truck from the passenger’s side to put his drink inside the vehicle. He said when he went around the truck to the driver’s side, the image was there. Initially, Stevens said he figured the image would go away and that would be the end of it.

Looks remarkably like the “Sallman Head” that’s been around for years. Sort of Anglicized.
The best Bible teacher I ever heard said that, since the Bible says Jesus ‘made Himself of no reputation…” … that He’d be nothing special in appearance that would make Him stand out, that He was likely a typical Jewish-appearing man, of swarthy skin. If He’d been as we most often see Him portrayed, He’d have stood out, in appearance, rather dramatically at the time. And the Bible said He didn’t do that.
