Nothing Can Separate You

"For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, 39 neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord."~Romans 8: 38-39Thoughts: How many times have you gotten caught up in work, school, family, business, hobbies or any of life’s ‘extracurricular’ activites and one day looked up only to feel that you have drifted far away…See More

LET GO AND LET GOD

"But the LORD's plans stand firm forever; His intentions can never be shaken" ~Psalm 33:11 THOUGHTS I remember the beginning of 2011, and the devotion on Dreaming Big. Did you dream big? Or did you find that in the process of doing so people tended to let you down? As this new year begins I was left to think about all the times I was let down by those who only sold me empty promises. If you are like me there are times that we get tired of the inconsistencies that we find in others and…See More

Yeah, I checked out your website a while ago. Neat concept. Not too many writers focus on the visual aspects of God and creation, and color is a large part of that.color also evokes a rather visceral response from people, even on a subconscious level, that it is intriguing that you use creatures made out of color itself; color, as we perceive it, its the wavelength of light an object reflects, so we never see actual objects, merely the light they reflect. What age group is this story aimed at?

Yeah, they are now into dueling scriptures...oy vey!

at it's core, this particular story is a coming of age & coming to faith tale set in a world where super powered beings exist. the opening conceptual question was "what would it look like if God started playing out"Book of Judges" type stuff in modern day America?"

Welcome aboard!  You have a dance ministry?  That's fascinating.  Any special challenges you face in doing it?

 
 
 

CCAS at Comic-Con

The 'Spirituality in Comics' Panel from San Diego Comic-Con 2011

In comics, movies, and even Broadway musicals like “The Book Of Mormon”, spiritual themed work seems to be unexpectedly coming from the least religious of sources.

Panelists including SERGIO CARIELLO (The Action Bible), RUSSELL DALTON (Marvelous Myths: Marvel Superheroes and Everyday Faith), BUZZ DIXON (Serenity/Hits & Misses), and MIKE SHIELDS (Blue Blazes) discuss how a new generation of comics and pop culture are exploring timeless truths and also address the question “Is Mass Media Our New Church?”
