I was recently blessed to design the logo and watermark for Focal Clarity Photography. The Portland-based owner, Ashley, is a sweet friend, whose passion for the Lord is contagious.
Check out her website! Her event photography is particularly beautiful.
Grace and peace in Jesus Christ!
Three new books in a series I have been privileged to illustrate have just been released.
Here’s a bit from the author’s website:
Dr. Craig’s “What is God Like?”: God is Forever
Our third booklet “God Is Forever” is about the eternity of God. Just as “God Is Everywhere” deals with God’s relationship to space, so “God Is Forever” deals with God’s relationship to time. Just as God is everywhere, so God is always. He never comes into existence and never goes out of existence. In contrast to the world around us, God exists permanently. Our story gives your children assurance that God will always be with them and that we shall live with God forever… Order “God is Forever”
Dr. Craig’s “What is God Like?”: God is Self-Sufficient
This fourth booklet “God Is Self-Sufficient” is about what theologians call God’s aseity. “Aseity” refers to God’s self-existence. It comprises God’s necessity and independence. God doesn’t just happen to exist, as if by accident. Rather God exists by a necessity of His own nature; it is impossible for Him not to exist. Moreover, God does not depend upon any other being for His existence. God alone is self-existent, and everything else depends on Him. Many theologians consider aseity to be the most fundamental of God’s attributes, but, sadly, the average Christian has never heard of it. This booklet attempts to expand your children’s concept of God’s greatness by describing Him as self-sufficient. By magnifying their concept of God, you can help your children to see why, as Papa Bear says, “We should depend on the One who depends on no one.”…Order “God is Self-Sufficient”
Just in time for Christmas – Dr. Craig’s “What is God Like?”: God is Three Persons
This fifth booklet “God Is Three Persons” is about the important doctrine of the Trinity. The doctrine of the Trinity is not the logical incoherence that three persons are somehow one person or that three Gods are somehow one God. It is the doctrine that the one God is tri-personal. God has three minds or self-conscious selves. There are three divine persons, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, and together they make up the one being that is God. Each one has all the attributes of God, but each person plays a different role in the plan of salvation. This booklet will stimulate your children’s thinking about the Christian doctrine of God and help them to understand the relations between the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, as well as our adoption into God’s family…. Order “God is Three Persons”
The past year, I’ve been so busy drawing children’s books, I’ve hardly had time to work on anything else. But a few late nights I been able to do something for fun! This was a quick drawing for my youngest sister’s birthday. At some point in time I would love to illustrate a children’s book on mixed-race families… but for now, just the adorableness of her.
A quick sketch for my sister’s birthday
Hello,
Over the past few months I have had the privilege of illustrating a series of ten children’s books for Dr. William Lane Craig (of Reasonable Faith).
These small books walk young children through the attributes of God – his nature, his presence and his character – through the conversations of an unusual animal family. It’s an incredible opportunity to instruct children in Christian theology from a very young age. My prayer is that these books would allow children to echo the psalmist, “Since my youth, O God, you have taught me, and to this day I declare your marvelous deeds.” – Psalm 71:17
The first two in this series are now available on Amazon. Lord willing, the remaining eight books will be available over the next several months. Your prayers are coveted as I continue to work.
Here is a glimpse of the book illustrations (sans text, sorry!). You can order God is Spirit here, and God is Everywhere here.
Thank you all – grace and peace to you in our Lord Jesus Christ!
