Churchtoons, cartoons from Church

Do you feel like the older brother?

 

The famous parable of the prodigal son (Luke 15),  reminds of God's great forgiveness to those who stray from his love. The end of the story becomes an indictment of our failure to forgive and embrace those we consider irresponsible or "lost." The prodigal's older brother refuses to join the celebration and welcome his brother home. The story shows how we hurt ourselves when we refuse to forgive and welcome others.

Welcome


Each of the cartoons on this site is an expression of a sermon I heard in church. As a cartoonist, my method of understanding complex theological topics is to boil them down to simple images.

These images will never do justice to the sermons from which they are derived, but hopefully, they convey at least one aspect of those sermons to you, the reader.

I hope that you gain some benefit from the cartoons and will reuse them in ways that honor Christ.
