Bible Comic for the week- Unclean things

Hello friends,

Here is the Bible comic for the week of August 14th. It is designed as a poster depicting the teaching from Matthew 15:10-11,17-20.

Bible Comic: Peter walking on water

The Bible comic for the Sunday of August 7th is the story of Jesus walking on water, and the apostle Peter walking out to him on the water from Matthew 14:22-33.

This comic is an excerpt from "The Story of Peter," a graphic novel retelling of the life of Peter. I am working on this project with Justin Martin, of R Squared Comicz, and we look forward to sharing more about it in the near future.

A pdf of this passage is available on my website: www.earnestillustrations.com

Bible Comic for July 31st: Matthew 14:13-14

This week's bible comic is a meditation on the time after Jesus hears the news of John the baptist's death. It is a time of healing for him and ultimately for many that day.

The bible comic is a booklet, in pdf form on my website: http://www.earnestillustrations.com/

This Week's Bible Comic: Matthew 13:31-33

Here are updated versions of the parable of the mustard seed (Matthew 13:31-32) and the parable of the yeast (Matthew 13:33). Both stories illustrate that seemingly small things and small actions can have a large impact in God's domain. A pdf file of the comic translation is available on my website: www.earnestillustrations.com

Bible Comics for the Season

This week marks the beginning of a series of bible comics based on the gospel lessons in the lectionary (Revised Common Lectionary). It features Revised versions of the parables I drew three years ago, along with new materials. The pdf's are available on my website: www.earnestillustrations.com . They will be added weekly, in preparation for the coming Sunday's lessons. This last week we featured the parable of the sower.

This week, we will be looking at the parable of the good seed and the weeds, from Matthew 13

Shepherd Sunday

Nicodemus, John 3:1-17, Bible Comic Translation

Dear friends,

the following is a favorite passage of mine, the encounter between Nicodemus and Jesus at night. The willingness of both Jesus and Nicodemus to open up, to ask questions, and share deep truths reminds me of the kind of conversations had over a campfire. While there is no direct mention of a fire in the gospel text, it is very much in the theme of darkness and light that runs so strongly in John's gospel.

As with other bible comic translations, please feel free to use this for meditation or ministry, to share with friends or people you hope to reach out to in the name and love of Christ. I wish you blessings in the season of Lent.

Earnest Graham
