Alabama Church Paints Murals of Biblical Figures Playing Sports, Including ‘Pickleball Paul’ and ‘Air Moses’

A church's sporty murals are going viral, leaving worshippers in shock.

According to reports from local media outlets, the news arose all thanks to a woman who was assisting with the coaching of her son's sports team. This is when she realized the paintings that happened to be located at the Good Shepherd United Methodist Church in Madison, Alabama.

The characters included the likes of Air Moses, who was seen leaping in the air with a flaming basketball instead of the flaming bush from the Old Testament.

Another piece that seemed to have caught her attention was the Picketball Paul, as the New Testament figure was seen enjoying the modern sport. Williams filmed and posted that video of the kids playing with the murals in the background, complete with the caption: 'Tell me you are practicing in a church gym!'- she added.

The woman further revealed that she got home and thought to herself that she was just going to post this and see if her friends found it funny. And the next morning, she had all sorts of comments on it from strangers, and the views had crossed 20k.
