October 18, 2015 – 500th Post

10-18-15 - appreciation - color

500th post…hey, that feels pretty good.

The church at which I work is very good at appreciating its staff–no complaints here. Was just playing with the idea of what “appreciation” might look like from someone who wasn’t feeling it.

Along with many of my colleagues in ministry I will be applying ashes today as we begin the season of Lent. Foreheads of all sizes are welcomed…

2-15-15 canon - color

My son mentioned, after seeing this cartoon, that whenever I draw a “holy man” he seems to be named “Father Frank.” With the season of Lent almost upon us there will be opportunity to supplement my clergy monikers.

By the way, another meaning for “canon” is a member of the clergy. Father Frank is a free spirit…

I did these cartoons to supplement a sermon I preached yesterday focusing on the story of Daniel. The first depicts his three friends Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego sentenced to die in King Nebuchadnezzar’s furnace. The second is Daniel being taken, upon King Darius’ orders, to be thrown to the lions. Some familiarity with biblical history/stories will help the reader here, but it’s not essential. Silly stuff, but fun for me to do.
