Yummy! Jesus promises that our heavenly Father will give us an abundance of Holy Spirit if we just ask for it. Doing this strip gave me that realization. I think this verse has the common misconception that God will give us whatever good things we ask for. He might! But that is not the lesson [...]
I never can resist putting double-meaning emphasis on the Scriptures that refer to “drawing”. It actually gives a whole new dimension of meaning that, for me, makes total sense. I mean the whole motivation behind doing these comics is to share the “better hope” found in the New Testament and its connection to the Old, [...]
There is nothing there to be seen, yet we believe there is. That is what having faith is all about. This is the approach God used to make the universe, the Earth, you, everything… if you have faith He did of course. This is the approach that scientists, inventors and explorers use when they set [...]
People who are truly pure and innocent in this world often get labeled as naive, out of touch, gullible or even plain stupid. Conversely people who make innuendos, draw twisted and vile comparisons and turn almost any situation of conversation into some kind of crude joke are hailed as witty, ingenious, and somehow smarter than [...]
This is a great verse to follow my last strip, referencing Moses’ radiance hidden under the veil. The whole ‘fading glory’ thing is a very heavy subject that I can’t say I fully grasp (right now). But what I do grasp is that Christ’s Spirit transforms us with ‘ever-increasing glory’, and we reflect that when [...]
Every day evil comes after us. It doesn’t always look like a big drooling monster, but it can often feel like one in our minds and hearts. It may be discouragement, doubt, anger, lust, pride, selfishness, or fear (just to name a few) that come after us each day. A lot of the time we [...]
How come no one ever talks about having a sheep in wolf’s clothing? In other words, someone who is a Christian brother or sister but whose outward appearance or pre-Christ history may leave other members of the church skeptical, uncertain or even fearful of them. We see this happening to Saul in the book of [...]
Fruity lips, huh? This verse gave me an instant visual. So why is confessing Jesus’ name a sacrifice? Well maybe because there’s no name more controversial; no name to associate yourself with that will bring you more scorn and contempt. But this name is the fruit-bearing fertilizer of God. God is pleased when we take [...]
The truth revealed in this verse is one of the most basic fundamentals we must possess to live a truly obedient life to God. This is the belief that this printed book, the Holy Bible or “Scriptures”, is the perfect word of God. Saint Peter tells us that “Above all” we must understand this. This [...]
Hey, hay!! Yet another spectacular promise made by Jesus that will never fail to reinforce our faith. “Seek and you will find.” Sometimes it’s the simplest solution for questions we have or finding resolve to challenges we face. At times I want answers or I want peace, but I’m held back from attaining it because [...]
