Are You Ashamed of Jesus?

Christians are wont to say that they are not ashamed of Jesus, which seems OK. But is there really no reason to be ashamed of him?

the Calvary crucifixion scene with text saying "I'm not ashamed of the One who saved my soul!"

What about that time Jesus got hungry and visited an out-of-season tree to find food, only to find no food, lose his cool, and kill the tree over it (Mark 11:12–14)? We’d be ashamed of any other adult that does that; don’t be so blinded by the titles given to Jesus that you let this sort of behavior pass!
