Big news about Frogboy

Posted on December 14, 2007 at 9:25am 3 Comments

Hello again. If you read the last entry "This week at kids club" I mentioned the Great Big news about Frogboy.

Well, here it is! You had better sit down and hang on to your hats and all of that. When I first started making Frogboy comics for the Urban Restoration ministry I was a little bit disappointed that we didn't have enough money to print the comics in color. I prayed that someone would step up and donate some extra money for color printing. I didn't think that the kids would respond… Continue

This week at kids club

It is amazing how God works in our lives. I have been blessed to be a part of a great ministry in the city where I live called Urban Restoration. Urban Restoration houses a variety of ministries, all geared towards reaching out to the inner-city.

This past spring a friend of mine who new that I had been working on a comic called Frogboy invited me down to Urban to meet a guy there. He told me they were looking for a mascot to use for the ministry and had been looking for some time. After… Continue

HI John,

Happy Thanksgiving! I'm Scott A. Shuford, one of the new Board members. I wanted to stop in and say thanks for being involved with CCAS! If you have any input or would like to be involved with anything in particular, please let me and Eric Jansen (Membership Coordinator for CCAS) know by contacting us both through the site. We'll be making several announcements in the coming weeks, so stay tuned. To see a bit more about me, check out my profile here on the site. I'm looking forward to getting to know you better.


At Your Service,

Consider the words of C.S. Lewis:
"If there lurks in most modern minds the notion that to desire our own good and to earnestly hope for the enjoyment of it is a bad thing, I suggest that this notion has crept in from Kant and the Stoics and is no part of the Christian faith. Indeed, if we consider the unblushing promises of reward and the staggering nature of the rewards promised in the Gospels, it would seem that our Lord finds our desires, not too strong, but too weak. We are half-hearted creatures, fooling around with drink and sex and ambition when infinite joy is offered us, like an ignorant child who wants to go on making mud pies in a slum because he cannot imagine what is meant by the offer of a holiday at sea. We are far too easily pleased."

Thanks for the drop-by. South Carolina is nice, a bit slow, but nice. This site is really great for creative types. Good to meet you.

Greetings brother -
I'm about three hours east from you down Hwy 74 between 95 and Wilmington. Glad to see another NC'er from here. I spent a lot of time in the Charlotte area and helped design a museum at Crowders Mountain State Park before going into the ministry.

Love your stuff - great line work, very professional!
 
 
 

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?”
