"Strong Feelings" • Written & Illustrated: Part Two

"Lost (Week 2)" • Written & Illustrated: Part Five

It’s easy to turn faith into a scorecard. Do the right things. Follow the rules. Be a good person. And somewhere along the way, we can start believing that our performance is what earns us something from God. But the story of the older brother reminds us that the Father was never looking for perfect performance. He wants relationship. Because you can follow all the rules and still miss the heart of the Father. What He wants most isn’t what you do for Him—it’s you.

"Lost (Week 1)" • Written & Illustrated: Part Four

We often think we have to get our lives together before we can come back to God. Change first. Clean ourselves up. Become someone better. But Jesus tells a different story. No matter how far you've wandered, your Father isn't waiting with crossed arms—He's waiting with open arms. He isn't asking you to fix yourself before you come home. He simply wants you. Because His grace is greater than your past, and His love never runs out.

"Well Played" • Written & Illustrated: Part Three

We're all building something with the way we live. Jesus invites us to live with eternity in mind—to use our time, gifts, resources, influence, and the way we treat others to bring a glimpse of God's kingdom into the world around us. The choices we make today may seem ordinary, but they have the potential to leave an eternal impact.

It's easy to focus on what someone has done to us. But Jesus reminds us that on the other side of the hurt is a person deeply loved by God—someone with a story, struggles, and a need for grace, just like us. Forgiveness isn't just for their sake—it's for ours too. When we choose empathy over resentment, we make room for healing, freedom, and relationships that reflect the heart of Jesus.

"For the Birds" • Written & Illustrated: Part One

We tend to overlook the small things. The small decisions, brief conversations, simple acts of kindness, or moments that seem insignificant at the time. But Jesus often pointed to ordinary things to reveal extraordinary truths. A mustard seed may seem small, but it carries the potential for far more than anyone would expect. Sometimes the things that feel insignificant today become the very things God uses in a significant way tomorrow. Because when God is involved, small beginnings can lead to something much greater than we can see.
