Daniel Berrigan quipped “Before you get serious about Jesus, first consider how good you are going to look on wood!” When teaching high school students, I used this line during Lent. Adolescents, as you know, are very conscious of their looks. Already on Ash Wednesday, some were worried about the ashen smudge on their foreheads. Often the classes made felt crosses with their names on one side and pinned to the bulletin board. Throughout Lent I’d ask the students, “How are you carrying your cross?” During a Penance Service as students waited their turn for confession, there was a mirror set up. On the mirror was the question, “Are you looking like Christ?” Students pondered how carrying their personal crosses made them more like Jesus.
