“We’ve gotta invite this Jesus guy to all our parties!”
Josh Bizzell, Byron, Georgia

Thank you to all those who submitted caption entries for our Spring 2025 cartoon (left), based on John 2:9–10: “When the steward tasted the water that had become wine, and did not know where it came from (though the servants who had drawn the water knew), the steward called the bridegroom and said to him, ‘Everyone serves the good wine first, and then the inferior wine after the guests have become drunk. But you have kept the good wine until now.’” We are pleased to congratulate Josh Bizzell of Byron, Georgia, who wrote the winning caption, and our runners-up:
