Flight of the Wild Goose, Mug
In the Celtic tradition the Holy Spirit is represented as a bird, but not the peaceful and serene dove landing on Jesus at his baptism. For their symbol of the Holy Spirit, the Celtic church people chose the Wild Gose, ( An Geadh-Glas) This has become, the logo and name for the worship branch of the Iona Community. Why did the Wild Goose speak to those ancient Celtic Christians? To begin with, wild geese aren’t controllable. You can’t restrain a wild goose and bend it to your will. They’re raucous and loud. Unlike the sweet and calming cooing of a dove, a goose’s honk is strong, challenging, strident and unnerving – and just a bit scary. In much the same way the Spirit of God can be, demanding and unsettling. Think about the story of Pentecost, and the impression the disciples made on the crowd. People thought they were drunk and disorderly! Its one thing for a gentle dove to descend peacefully on Jesus – it’s something all together different when the Spirit descends like a wild, noisy goose!

I like to buy and review my own work to ensure you get an outstanding product and I’m happy to give the Primary Colours Beach Football Mug 5 stars because it meets my expectations completely. Pleased with it I am. Zazzle mugs are well fabricated, microwave and dishwasher safe. And this yellow red and blue panoramic wraparound motif is sealed with a durable and sparkling Orca polished gloss glaze finish. It’ll never rub off! The size and energy of two jostling figures and a burly goal keeper fit the mug's circular shape well. There's momentum in the carousel effect as the two jostling figures repeat and move right around the mug and meet a burly goal keeper. Big sharp original images precisely drawn and delicately captured in blue and red with plenty of bright yellow! An ideal gift for anyone who plays ball! A fun gift for all beachball and football fans. A pair with the Retro Grey-Grain Beachball Player Mug. Available in two sizes and several styles including Black Ringer, Travelling, and Stern. Go have a peek!
