Worship Slides Pressure Cartoon

There is a lot of pressure when you have the responsibility for running the presentation during a church service. And it doesn’t help when the worship leader goes with the Spirit. Such an experience inspired me to write and draw this worship slides pressure cartoon.

Worship Slides Pressure Cartoon: Man says, "I can't run the worship slides anymore. It's too much pressure!"

I have been on both sides of the screen. There have been times when I am in the congregation and I have been distracted by the erratic timing of the slides. I have wondered, “What in the world is the operator thinking? Is this even the same song?”

Why Moses heard a lot of complaining

We’ve all had to wait for something. We may have a dream or goal that isn’t happening as fast as we’d like. But how about waiting for forty years? Lack of patience and faith is why Moses heard a lot of complaining!

Why Moses heard a lot of complaining: A guy complains about no change of address cards.

A big test of our faith in a dream or goal is our patience. When we look forward to something, we can’t wait for it to get here. We may have to save, labor, and plod ahead to reach a goal. Yet, our estimate of how long something takes can be way off.

How to know you have a commanding presence

It may take more than a military-looking uniform to determine how to know you have a commanding presence. But it doesn’t hurt to look official, does it?

How to know you have a commanding presence Cartoon: a woman talks to a man in military clothes

One thing I do know is that it is no good to fake the appearance of being in the military when you really haven’t served. Only men and women who have gone through the training and sacrifice to earn a uniform should wear it. So forget being a military imposter!

Catching the Tech Wave

Boy, a lot has happened since I sketched this concept of catching the tech wave! The technology keeps getting faster, smaller, and cheaper. But are we any better for it? If we are continually connected to our devices, is it a good thing?

Technology is changing everything, including surfing. Apparently, it has changed surfing in dramatic ways; from surf forecasting to shark mitigation. I found this in my sketchbook. It was about surfers using GPS devices to find the best waves back in 2012.

Capable Dresser

It doesn’t seem that long ago when I kept track of my kids’ milestones. At the time, they seemed so important. Today, those milestones give me a bit of nostalgia. One such milestone is when each child becomes a capable dresser.

All parents wait for the day when their kids can dress themselves. They imagine what it will be like to have the freedom to have a cup of coffee while Junior gets ready for school.
