  • Thomas Road Christmas Eve Service

    Thomas Road Christmas Eve Service

    I’m a little late on this one but we still have our Christmas decorations up so it’s fair game! I wish I was able to draw everyone that’s involved with these services because I realize there is a small army required to put this on and we never see them. God bless you all out…

  • Sarah

    Sarah

    “Then Abraham fell on his face and laughed and said to himself, “Shall a child be born to a man who is a hundred years old? Shall Sarah, who is ninety years old, bear a child?” Genesis 17:17 Apparently, yes! Sarah was 90 years old when she carried Isaac. One of those cases where “with…

  • Stop Quoting that Verse!

    Stop Quoting that Verse!

    “It’s not what the scripture is saying, it’s out of context. We do this to justify our own opinion and to take the judgmental and selfish bias in our own mind and impose it on other people.”  Roy Dockery Wooooooooo boy. I found so much of this video to be insightful and it changes my…

  • A Thrill of Hope: Hope for the Heart

    A Thrill of Hope: Hope for the Heart

    “The Prince of Peace is the very source we have all been looking for. But when looking in the wrong place, we find pain not peace.” Pastor Jonathan Falwell Sunday morning at @thomasroad

  • Call to Mastery: Mike Maihack

    Call to Mastery: Mike Maihack

    “Write characters, not Christians.” Mike Maihack I really love the work done by @jordanraynor – I’ve illustrated him here a few times and his podcast is one I try not to miss. Having said that, I totally missed this episode so I’m totally glad when I stumbled upon it!  One thing that’s I’ve been thinking about for…

    Carey Nieuwhof Leadership Podcast with Kayla Stoecklein

    “Everyone you meet is fighting a battle you know nothing about. Be kind. Always.” -Brad Metzler I did not want to listen to this episode. I started listening to this podcast after hearing @careynieuwhof speak at FutureFWD and it’s usually really encouraging but I knew this episode specifically that speaks about anxiety, depression, and suicide would be…

  • The More of Less

    The More of Less

    I have a book problem. I don’t buy a ton of books but I buy enough that there’s no way I could read them all. This one has been sitting around for a while which is a shame because it’s small, easy to read, and instantly actionable. “The More of Less” by @joshua_beckeris a book about…

  • Hope has a Name

    Hope has a Name

    Sunday morning at @thomasroad. Hope has a name! 

  • Abigail

    Abigail

    “As she came riding her donkey into a mountain ravine, there were David and his men descending toward her, and she met them. David had just said, “It’s been useless—all my watching over this fellow’s property in the wilderness so that nothing of his was missing. He has paid me back evil for good. May…

  • Hope in Gods Way in Gods Time

    Hope in Gods Way in Gods Time

    “If you don’t stand firm in your faith then you will not stand at all.” – Isaiah 7:9 Pastor @treyvancamp shows up a lot in my feed; this man is PROLIFIC. I headed to @passioncreek.church and caught his latest sermon over there and frankly, it was awesome. He walks us through Isaiah 7 – a chapter with a lot…

  • Hope Changes Everything

    Hope Changes Everything

    Sunday morning at @thomasroad! Hope changes everything! Scott Bullman presented a great sermon on anchoring ourselves to the hope that only Jesus provides. 🙌🏼

  • Preachers N Sneakers – John Cooper

    Preachers N Sneakers – John Cooper

    “If we could encourage Christians to believe the Word of God we would find a lot of people totally fulfilled by Christ.” I’ve drawn “Tyler” and the PREACHERS podcast before and it does not disappoint. This podcast with John Cooper was particularly inspiring. There’s something infectious about listening to someone who is joyful about their…

  • Do More Better – Tim Challies

    Do More Better – Tim Challies

    The “true foundation” Tim Challies talking about here is the ability to fulfill God’s plan in our everyday lives. 🙌 I’m into productivity books and when productivity and Christianity collide – I am there! This book is a quick read but holds no punches, helps align the proper purpose to get stuff done, and gives…

  • Hope Revealed

    Hope Revealed

    Sunday morning at @thomasroad . @charlesbillingsleybroke out in some fire a cappella in the middle of his own sermon! One of my sons said “and that’s without auto tune!”

  • Angels True Form

    Angels True Form

    “Honestly, if you see an angel that’s all eyes and wings and wheels of fire, you should be worried. Like, not because it’s going to hurt you or anything, but because scripturally, angels invariably appear to ordinary people in human form. In general, they only show their inhuman true forms to prophets – which means…

  • And Always Be Thankful

    And Always Be Thankful

    Sunday morning at @thomasroad. I appreciated this message heading into Thanksgiving. I tried to capture the “table” illustration but you probably need to see the service to get the full effect! 😅

  • The Beginning and the End

    The Beginning and the End

    Sunday morning at @thomasroad . Always a good word!

  • Hannah

    Hannah

    “I am a woman who is deeply troubled. I have not been drinking wine or beer; I was pouring out my soul to the Lord. 16 Do not take your servant for a wicked woman; I have been praying here out of my great anguish and grief.” 1 Samual 1:15-16 Reading about the 7 prophetesses has…

  • Jael

    Jael

    “So may all your enemies perish, Lord! But may all who love you be like the sun when it rises in its strength.” Judges 5:31 Taking a slight break from the 7 prophetesses and featuring Jael. Ok, I know we already talked about her but A.) I wanted to do something in-line with the art…

    I read a lot of Bloom County in the 80’s. I was a kid and didn’t get most of the jokes. I get them now. Time for a break! @berkeleybreathed

  • Do Over by Jon Acuff

    Do Over by Jon Acuff

    I know, there’s a lot going on today. I keep things pretty apolitical here because I really feel like that ground is covered well by many other people who are way more passionate about these things than I am. If you’re in the U.S. – go vote. What I do want to convey today is…

  • The God of Tribalism

    The God of Tribalism

    Which of these three do you think proved to be a neighbor to the man who fell into the robbers’ hands?” And he said, “The one who showed compassion to him.” Then Jesus said to him, “Go and do the same.” I don’t think I can add to what is a great message. We can disagree and still be friends.…

  • Esther

    Esther

    “I will go to the king even if it is against the law. If I perish, I perish.” My series on unsung biblical heroes has morphed into my series on the 7 biblical prophetesses! Today is Esther, the beloved queen who saved the Jewish people from total annihilation. Having read this book with different eyes…

  • Untitled post 1270

    About twenty minutes into the Rogan/Kanye interview I heard this *paraphrased* quote from Kanye and I liked it so much I drew it out. If you’ve spent enough time in an American Christian Church you’ll eventually hear someone paraphrase 1 Corinthians 3:2 to the tune of “I want meat not milk.” Along those lines I…

  • Full Seasons of the Soul

    Full Seasons of the Soul

    Every now and then I try to make a series of sermon notes connect! I don’t know if anybody is actually into this but I like to print them out and make a big banner – if you are too here’s the full thing. Enjoy! p.s. It’s 13,200px by 2,550px. 😳

  • Seasons of the Soul – Week 4

    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

    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…

  • Pray

    Pray

    Sometimes it’s so easy for the most important things to become obscured. It’s not that anything else is bigger; it’s just there’s so much of it.

  • Season of the Soul – Week 3

    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…
