Do My Bidding Cartoon

Let’s face it. We are all selfish and would like things to go our way all the time. That’s where this “do my bidding cartoon” came from.

Do my bidding cartoon. A boy says, "I'm mad! Why can't the world to my bidding?"

Nobody like selfish people, do we? Of course, if we’re honest, we don’t like selfish people because we want to be the selfish person. All of us want to be king of the world and have everyone do their bidding.

There are seven billion potential dictators in the world, and I am just as selfish as the rest of them. There! I said it! confession is good for the soul, this morning.

Another Spiritual Truth Cartoon

Christian parents can feel a lot of pressure to pass their faith on to their kids. That inspired me to draw this “another spiritual truth” cartoon.

Another spiritual truth cartoon. A boy says, "You're missing another opportunity to convey a spiritual truth to me."

It’s a challenge to pass our faith to our kids when there are so many voices screaming for our attention. Electronic messages prompt us to check our phones. Algorithms sort out the most outrageous messages so we can make a tempest from a teapot. Yes, it’s challenging to sort out what is really important!

How do you rate Vacation Bible School?

Some families make a summer of going to different, local VBS programs. One day, I thought of what it would look like if there was a VBS critic, much like a movie or concert critic. That inspired my “How do you rate vacation Bible school?” cartoon.

Seriously though, if we’re going to host a big program like VBS, we need to consider how effective it is and how we can improve it. And if the volunteers have to eat the snacks, we would like them to be palatable to grown-ups too!

Bestselling Report Cartoon

Do you remember all that writing we did in school? I would like to have thought they were bestselling papers. That thought inspired this bestselling report cartoon.

Bestselling Report Cartoon: A student says to a teacher, "Pretty good report, isn't it? Do you think I can make some serious moolah with this?"

It would have been nice if that third-grade report on bees and honey made it on the New York Times Best Sellers list. But I feel it is best that the report is buried deep in a landfill.

Testing those Props

A few years ago, I had a great lesson on testing those props before presenting a lesson. I mean, what could wrong with candy as props, right?

The monthly theme in my class had been about grace. The classroom has been decorated like a candy shop and the opening activities had used sweets as props. This was part of the curriculum at http://whatisorange.org/252basics/.

The lesson called for inviting kids to come up and “test” candy for the rest of the class. The samples included some pretzel M & M’s, gummy candy, and Pop Rocks candy.
