When you think of Jesus, do you think of a serious and somber man, who faced trials and torture? If you actually read the Bible, you'll see that it's clear in scripture that many people were drawn to Jesus' presence during His life. "Jesus," writes Sherwood Eliot Wirt, "was a man of such joy, such merriment, such gladness of spirit, such freedom and openness, that He was irresistible."[1]
