    This week’s bulletin cover was easy as this idea has been rolling around for a while. I asked myself, from a Biblical perspective how do you become a fisher of men? It seemed to me that you “catch” someone by being different and fruitful – as in the fruits of the spirit. This lead me…

      This week’s cover was at first a bit of a challenge. It’s a verse about Jesus being tempted and being the desert for 40 days. How will I ever illustrate that? Then God just put the image in my head and it was easy after that. I am pleased with the result. You can…

    Jeremiah. 29:11 Graduation Sunday This year we had 5 graduates from our little church. It has been awesome to watch these little ones grow up before us. They are such fine young adults. My prayer for them is to always follow the plans that God has for them. Jer. 29:11 For I know the plans…

    Philippians   Starting a new sermon series on Philippians. This is such a great book! I designed an old hand written letter complete with wax seal and put a post mark in the upper right hand corner with a 4:4 in the center. This represents Philippians 4:4 “Rejoice in the Lord always”, which seems to…

    Sunday School Poster: Eph 3:20 So I think Spring might finally be arriving in St. Louis. I hear birds and my daffodils are blooming. They even survived the snow last week. I just thought it would be a great time to post my illustration for Ephesians 3:20. This is my life verse, it just speaks…

    Sermon Sketchnotes : Ps 18:31 Who is God besides the Lord? I have discovered that when I doodle a bit during the sermon I retain more. I have undertaken the study of Stechnoting which incorporates sketching into note taking. It’s a very effective method for jotting notes and increasing retention of information. I can attest…

    Saturday in 27 degree weather 20 students from SIUE and some awesome folks from different churches in the area all got together and we feed the homeless. I am always amazed at these events when I think that we won’t have enough food. The pots of food just keep coming and there was more than…

    I have always admired people who have  been able to write pages and pages in their journals during quite time. I have a tall stack of journals where I have tried to journal – it lasts for about 2 days. I  have tried getting really fancy journals thinking I’d be more inclined to journal –…
