Why you should go…
Christ of the Ozarks is a seven-story statue of Jesus completed in 1966 on Magnetic Mountain, on the grounds of The Great Passion Play. Its arms stretch 65 feet from fingertip to fingertip, and the figure is made of white mortar layered over a steel frame. Sculptor Emmet Sullivan, who had worked on Mount Rushmore, designed it. Seeing the statue is free, and the same grounds hold a Bible museum, a sacred arts museum and mountain bike trails.
