David – The Weak Became Strong
My sketch notes from the 9-11-2022 service at Thomas Road Baptist Church. You can download the pdf below! 👇🏻
-
Matt Chandler on what is noble and good
“I think so many of the problems, including a lack of power in evangelicalism, is directly tied to the state of Biblical illiteracy and the belief that the Bible was given to guys like me to explain to you.” “We live in an environment that’s charged and you can refuse to participate in the outrage…

Olivia Munn-Shirsath on Greatness
“Our Master came to serve and He entreats us to do the same. The more authority you hold on this earth; the greater the impetus to serve. You want to be great? You want to be influential? Your want to be a leader in your home? Become a slave to all.” @oliviamunnshirsath from @churchofthecitynewyork talking about Mark 10:42-45…

Tim Parsons – Closer to Jesus
“What if we all felt ownership of the mission to take everyone we meet one step closer to becoming disciples of Jesus?” Pastor Tim Parsons of @centerpointchurch Unfortunately I’m bringing this sketch to you posthumously as Pastor Tim passed away early last week. I didn’t know him but on hearing the news I went to Center…

Patrick Miller on Who the music points to 👆
“He’s the one the music points to. Music always points beyond itself to the creator, to the orderer!” @patrickkeithmiller at @thecrossingcomo This one came up *unexpectedly* on my feed and it was an interesting look into the idea that there’s something beautiful and mathematical in music that points directly to God the creator. I’m not a big…

Reach Out
“What does love have to do with it? EVERYTHING.” – Pastor @jadavisii I had to pleasure to create this sketch for Pastor Davis over at the @verve.pomona for his one year anniversary! I don’t know a lot about being a pastor but by observing a lot of them out in the wild; it seems like a difficult career…
-
Ready to be Used?
I know @thomasroadwas handing out notebooks but I’m still taking notes on the iPad. Great sermon and I love this quote from Pastor @jonathanfalwell; “what could you accomplish if you were simply ready to be used?”
-
Just Obey
Religion says “Obey and you’ll be accepted” but Jesus says “You are already accepted, just obey.” @charlesbillingsley at @thomasroad I knew when Pastor Charles started in with the Hachi story was the moment I was going to start crying in church. 😢 Man – was is it with dog stories? I’m in easier cryer already but when you…
-
The Problems of Today
We are quick to forget what Jesus did for us yesterday when facing our problems of today! @jonathanfalwell at @thomasroad Pastor Jonathan spoke of the second (and lesser known) feeding of the 4000 from Mark today! There’s a lot of nuance in this sermon which I always find difficult to capture in these things but it was interesting…
-
God Loves You
I’ve said it before, but when @charlesbillingsley gives a sermon there’s just not enough paper and ink to get it all down. He packs so much into them! 😅 Another great sermon at @thomasroad today! 🙌🏼
-
Which Side is Jesus On?
“Which side is Jesus on? He doesn’t choose a ‘side.’ He invites us to choose his side! Jesus transcends all politics!” @ericgeigerinsta I was humbled to create this sketchnote by request of a service at @marinerschurch in Irvine, CA! 🙌 The heart the Pastor Eric displays here is so right on. I feel like the political climate has…
-
The Biggest Priorities
“If you don’t fill up your life with the biggest priorities first; you’re never going to be able to fill your life with what matters the most.” @tomkangsta When I came across the image @newstory.la posted of Tom Kang gleefully filling jars I knew I was going to be watching that sermon. 😅 I’ve been so blessed to…
-
Major in the Minors
My notes from @thomasroad today. I would have made a digital version but my procreate library has taken up all available space and I’m waiting for new iPad to come in. Add to that my favorite pen ran out of black ink and I barely finished this today. Fortunately none of that has to do with hearing…
-
The Danger of Pride
Of all of Satan’s weapons, the one that he wields the hardest is pride. I can’t even begin to tell you how many problems could be solved this very day if we’d just let go of our pride and engage with people in a way that doesn’t serve ourselves. If only we could just be…
-
Under the Sun
“When you know God, you are in the land of the dying; on your way to the land of the living!” @charlesbillingsley This service at @thomasroad is such a blessing to me. Like all Pastor Charles’ messages, I can only capture a little bit of what’s presented but the comparison of the lyrics from songs from the world…
-
Motion Church
“If you want to be good enough then you need to be perfect. If you want to be perfect then you need to follow Jesus.” @pastorjasondoran A week ago my family and I found ourselves in Lexington, KY and among the UPS trucks and Amazon fulfillment centers we found @themotionchurch ! Ok, I know there are some 400,000…
-
Stand Against the Powers
“For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.” Ephesians 6:12 I wanted to finish out this series with Pastor @richvillodas and everyone at @nlfnyc . I was blessed by this message because of…
-
Peace in the Midst of the Storm
“The name of the Lord is a fortified tower; the righteous run to it and are safe.” Proverbs 18:10 Pastor Jonathan made a note that this sermon is not in response to the election. I think this verse is perfect though – don’t replace “the Lord” in the above verse with Trump or Biden. The…
-
I Got My Vision Back!
“Strengthen me, I pray, just this once, O God, that I may with one blow take vengeance on the Philistines for my two eyes!” If I’m being honest, when I first pulled up the video for the @rampchurchintlSunday service I saw the timestamp of 2:14 and I was like “seriously, over two hours long?” By the…
-
Stand Strong
“For this reason take up the full armor of God, so that you may be able to resist in the evil day, and having prepared everything, to take your stand.” So – I see a fair number of sermons and this is honestly the first time I’ve seen a pastor rip apart of phone book…
-
The God of Relativism
“In those days there was no king in Israel; everyone did what was right in his own eyes.” I’ve got to hand it to @charlesbillingsley because I can imagine being asked to preach about moral relativism has got to be a challenging call in multiple realms. I thought he handled it with all the knowledge, grace, and…
-
God, Politics, and the Church
“If any christian fits neatly into a political party then they don’t fit neatly into the Kingdom of God. The Kingdom of God trancends all political parties.” 😳 I started following Pastor @richvillodason twitter and was really impacted by his insight and the love that comes through his words. I decided to catch a sermon and…
-
The God of Status
“Do nothing out of rivalry or conceit, but in humility consider others as more important than yourselves.” Phil 2:3 Fantastic message from @thomasroadthis morning. Amen to THIS! 🙌🏻 Here’s the alternate version for those who saw the sermon! 🏍
-
House Divided: Journey Church
“When we take our cue from culture; division is inevitable. When we take our cue from Jesus; unity is guaranteed.” This one wasn’t on the schedule. A few people have mentioned @journeyraleigh in Raleigh, NC because they tragically lost their pastor this week. I can’t imagine what they’re going through. I watched the latest sermon that he…
-
The God of Materialism
“Life is tragic for those that have plenty to live on but nothing to live for.” Great sermon from Pastor Jonathan at @thomasroad today. Day to day it’s so easy to focus on things that don’t matter in the long run. You can’t serve two masters my friend.
-
The Jericho Game Plan
For months I saw the sign for the Hope Company over on Leesville road and I had no idea it was a church? How awesome is that! I watched Pastor P.J. Preston bring a blessed message on a beautiful Sunday at an outdoor sermon in the parking lot. It’s so awesome to see how God’s…
-
Uknown God – God of Pleasure
Lovers of things – Lovers of self We know this god all too well; the one that tells us we can have whatever we want, we can do whatever we want, and we can be whatever we want. A lover of all things is a lover of none and God’s plan decidedly instructs us to…
-
Seasons of the Soul – Week 4
“Jesus is not in the shame business; He is in the resurrection business.” This is the closing message of the Seasons of the Soul series over at @waymaker.church ! Such a good series; I really enjoyed seeing how they do things over there. Even though I don’t physically attend the churches that I sketchnote (I mean, other…
-
Unknown God
Truly, these times of ignorance God overlooked, but now commands all men everywhere to repent… Acts 17:30 I could go on and on about idols and the things we turn into idols but I think Pastor Jonathan sums it up pretty succinctly here. The thing we create are not our gods and are not worthy…

Season of the Soul – Week 3
From birth I was cast on you; from my mother’s womb you have been my God. Psalm 22:10 Back to waymaker; this time for Winter. This one was heart-wrenching. The end game is beautiful in that we get to witness God’s restorative power but getting there is hard. Psalm 22 lived out and on display…
