Art and Preaching Project

One of my contingencies assigned by the BOOM is to do an "independent study incorporating art and preaching." I'm still entirely sure what that means, but I have an incredible mentor to work with and I know that I need to get started. So....Inspired by The Painted Prayer Book, I've decided that one element of this project will be adding art to my exegetical process for sermon prep.  (total disclaimer: I'm more of a dabbler than an artist, so these pieces are more about exploration than expression).

Since starting, I've preached four sermons:
"Hydration" based on Jeremiah 2:4-13
 *for this sermon, I made sure to have a pitcher and glass of water....pausing to drink throughout.*



"99 Problems and a Sheep on the Run" based on Luke 15:1-10

"The More Excellent Way" c.f. 1 Timothy 6:6-12, 17-19


"Prayers for Babylon" Jeremiah 29:1, 4-7
