What do your prayers say about you?

The story of the proud religious man in Luke 18 might make you feel better about your prayers. Compared to this obviously proud man, we might be tempted to feel superior in our own faith and in the way we express it, but if we look closely enough, will we see a little bit of even this caricature in ourselves? May we find the courage to face our inner hypocrite.

Happy Thanksgiving

1 Thessalonians gives us this simple command, In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you

Do you think God is your servant?

Luke 17 provides insight into how we think of God. While referring to ourselves as humble, our requests show that we expect God to do be our servant and to perform according to our timetable. How are you treating God? As master or servant?

Happy Veterans' Day

As Christians, we understand that giving your life for another is the essence of Christ-like behavior (Jn 15). For those who have served their country and given of themselves to preserve freedoms and liberties, we say thank you for being like Christ. In what way have you given of yourself?

NOTE: As a former USAF member, churchtoons' author Bob Church gives all of his fellow vets a shout-out and a call for support in any legislation that will provide relief.

How much do you worship your God?

One of the most puzzling stories Jesus told was about a dishonest manager who was about to be fired (Luke 16:1-13). The story highlights how hard those who worship money will work to obtain riches, and if we serve the God of all riches as diligently as those who serve the god of money.

A God with enough grace to forgive...

The famous story of the Prodigal Son ends with the father reaching out to the older, more responsible son (Luke 15). This son reminds that God is willing to seek and forgive even the religious hypocrite and self-righteous church person. Are you willing to seek the Father who extends such love?

What kind of Father is God?

In response to the self-righteous attitudes of the religious leaders, Jesus told the story of the Prodigal Son.  The story depicts God the Father as willing to lay aside His dignity and reputation to show love to a very undeserving person. How would it change you to think of God as this kind of Father?


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.
