Hestia Homeschool for Young Wild Women

According to some candlemakers in South Dakota, it’s Jesus.

Now there’s a candle that lets you experience the scent of Jesus, and they’re selling them by the case.

“We see it as a ministry, ” says Bob Tosterud, who together with his wife came up with the idea for the candle.

Light up the candle called “His Essence” and its makers say you’ll experience the fragrance of Christ.

Bob Tosterud and wife Karen say the formula is all spelled out in Psalm 45.

“It’s a Messianic Psalm referring to when Christ returns and his garments will have the scent of myrrh, aloe and cassia,” says Karen Tosterud.

  Wish I'd come up with the concept-I'd be rich! My first thought, though, was that Jesus probably smelled like all the men of his day-sawdust(he was a carpenter, aftersll)sweaty, dirty,with a whiff of sea spray about him when he had been in the boats with his disciples. Margo

  Now I wouldn't mind trying that scent, but when I first started to read, the scent of chalk and cotton and black came to mind -- from the nuns of elementary school!  LOL
