The Art Pastor Live

Join me this Thursday, June 27 at 11:00am CST.

Sometimes there are no words for what and how we need to pray. Paul tells us in Romans that the Holy Spirit intercedes for us in groans that we cannot understand.

Join me in this livestream as we conclude our June Journey in the Art of Prayer by exploring how contemplative art can be an excellent form of prayer beyond words.

Using Toon Boom Storyboard Pro to Visually Think through Why There are So Many Worship Styles

This week I share the work I’ve been doing around the subject of worship. Two things converge for me this week: First, I am the new Dean of the Chapel at Luther Seminary and it is my responsibility to cultivate, steward, and shepherd the worship and spiritual life of our Seminary. Second, I am writing a course called Loving God with our Spirit for Faith+Lead Academy in which I talk about the spiritual practice of worship.

I spent all day on Friday visually thinking through the question, “Why are there so many worship styles, and how do I choose one that’s right for me?” I find that Toon Boom Storyboard Pro is an excellent tool to create multi-dimensional mind maps. If you’ve read my book The Visual Preacher then you know that I love creating mind maps to visually explore a sermon, or any presentation. This livestream is an example of that.

I hope you find this session interesting and helpful. I get rambling a bit, and definitely run out of time to go deeply into all the ideas I drew about.

In this session of Art Pastor Live I interview photographer Ethan Thomason and am filled with awe and wonder as we view his gallery of photographs in which he captures the vast universe of the tiniest life forms that grow in our backyard. You don’t want to miss it.
