It’s hard to believe it’s been almost 2 years since I started writing this series of reviews… it’s been a busy 2 years! But, guess what? Ross King has released a new album, so as a way to promote his
20 Years of Ross King: Early 2000s
ZOIIE: Genesis 1
Well, here is a glimpse of an art series that I’ve been planning for a couple years now– that could potentially take years to finish… which is why I haven’t actually started on it. It’s a little intimidating. Part of
The Bible Year (Scope and Sequence)
This is the scope and sequence of the children’s Sunday morning lessons that I plotted out for 2015 for Greenhouse Ministries at Poplar Creek Church. It brings together the resources we have with Sparkhouse Rotational Model (which have many materials we
The End & The Beginning
Spring & Summer 2015 Mix “Every new beginning comes from some other beginning’s end” wrote Seneca the Younger (also featured in the song, “Closing Time” by Semisonic– the quote, not Seneca). These are seasons of ends and beginnings. Over the past couple
20 Years of Ross King: The Early Years
I first heard Ross King’s music at camp in 2002. Some of the staff listened to his albums and a few of his songs made it into the camp videos. So after repeated viewings of my camp tape (back when VHS was
Greenhouse Ministries Resources
Hey there friends! I get the fun job of creating curriculum, handouts, flyers, documents, and resources for the kids, parents, families, and volunteers in Greenhouse Ministries at Poplar Creek Church. Some are so specific they may have no place beyond
Hildegard of Bingen
Hildegard of Bingen shines like a flame through the ages.* She was a woman of her time, speaking to the broken Church, rebuking the sin and encouraging the faithful– and still her words ring true almost nine centuries later. She
All Work And No Playlists Makes Evan A Dull, Listless Boy
As I’ve been working hard on my final project for Wheaton, I have made many a playlist. Many, many a playlist. Playlists to get me energized, playlists to keep me awake as I pull an all nighter, playlists to pace
My Fave 15 on YouTube
It’s amazing what you can find on YouTube. What channels do you enjoy? What types of videos do you tend to watch? Cats? Gamers? Music Videos? 10 Hour Loops of Patrick from Spongebob saying “I Love You”? (Because that totally
La La La Amen
I made this mix of songs for my sister for Christmas 2014. While many of the songs didn’t come out in 2014, I did discover them or fall in love with them in 2014. You can listen to the mix
In Christ You Are: The Song
Who else learns best through music? Well, as I’m talking about this icur project, I wanted to have a song that represented the themes of our identity in Christ. It’s not perfect… maybe one of these days someone will help
The Four
It’s somewhat fascinating. What is it about the structure of four that it is so recurring? There are all sorts of different groupings– a duo, a triad, and of course a quartet. I think it’s interesting to look them over
Wilt Thou Forgive?
I found this hymn years ago and loved the lyrics– who hasn’t had these fears and storms within? I put it to new chords and finally made a recording– poor, I know, but I’m happy it’s somewhere other than my
icur: The Why
Who are you? We get this question on a daily basis, in word and glance and attitude and within. We answer and identify ourselves by our appearance, our occupation, our age and race and economic status and educational background, where
Motivational Babies #5
I created these a few years, combining the “aww” of babies and the “awesome” of motivational quotes. Some are funny, some are serious, and some are just awe inspiring. And some are just stupid. More at http://motivationalbabies.blogspot.com.
The Odd Liturgy, Part 4
One of these days, I’m going to show y’all the art of the Odd Liturgy, the little book in which I’ve been inscribing these prayers. The prayer is as much the image as the words… But for now, the words
In Christ You Are…
I have a vision for next year. I honestly want to launch this right now, but there’s this little thing called school– plus work and church and friends and family and home and… Anyway… 2014 January 2014 Get ready. (This
Random Art- November 2013
I have a problem creating pieces that I feel are worthy of posting online. But sometimes it’s good to just throw your hands up in the air sometimes, say “Hey Oh” and post some random art. Made this MSPaint picture
Expectations, Contentment, and This Present Beauty
There is this wonderful new thing going around the interwebs– “What Would I Say?” This Facebook app is hilarious, captivating, and might teach us something about creativity as well. Now, I don’t use many Facebook apps, if any. Words with
A Line of Grace and Faith
I drew this quite a few years back, while I was studying at Baylor. I think it was partially in response to some of my classes, but it was also just something I was thinking about in in my daily
I Saw it on the App, Vine!
Yes, it’s cheesy. “I heard it thru the grapevine…” I like wordplay. Sue me. (Please don’t sue me.) So there’s this thing called “Vine.” It’s a phone app that was introduced this year and has grown and blossomed into a
Just Keep Swimming
I love Finding Nemo. The story, the emotion, the funny moments and inspirational messages. This one in particular has always gripped me. I’ve constantly searched these videos on YouTube, for a loop of Dory saying “Just Keep Swimming” over and
Kids React Infographic
I am a huge fan of TheFineBros and all of their creative works, especially their React shows and especially Kids React! I wanted to share some fun tidbits of information about the Fine Brothers and their fantastic show and thought
