Parkour for Jesus? Unfortunately, this is a thing.
About a year ago, my wife sent me a link to a craigslist ad for a guy who was starting a Parkour for Jesus group. Parkour, of course is the ‘sport’ of freestyle walking and running.
I found the screen-capture of the long deleted personal ad, and it made me laugh all over again. I had to whip up something in photoshop to celebrate (above).
I love craigslist weirdos. This is one of the finest examples. I actually contacted this guy after a few beers. I suggested that we all do parkour at the local planned parent hood parking lot. Jesus was sure to be impressed as our ninja-moves shamed those women! The guy pretty much instantly called me out and was pretty nice about it. He thought it was a funny suggestion.Anyway, I have no idea if he ever got that group up and running out here in the Fort Bragg area. But if he had, it would have looked like this:

Have any readers had any run-ins with Christian parkour groups? Is parkour still trendy?
I’ll be bringing you plenty more of my investigations into the para/abnormal on craigslist. Fayetteville/Fort Bragg’s craigslist page is an untapped goldmine for crazy talk.
