I’ve been asked a few times why I post graphic arts or design advice. There are two key reasons 1) I like it. 2) Design really is a language in our culture. Often ministries lack of design knowledge can lead to distraction. (We’ve all seen power point slides that make us cringe.) Ministry leaders generally do not have education is design, but having an awareness will help them listen to those whom God equipped in that area.

Design stuff related to education. Often have carryover to ministry settings:
