Jesus' Honor

God saves a person, fills him with the Holy Spirit, and then says, in effect, “Now you work it out in your life, and be faithful to Me, even though the nature of everything around you is to cause you to be unfaithful.” And Jesus says to us, “. . . I have called you friends. . . .” Remain faithful to your Friend, and remember that His honor is at stake in your bodily life.

The Secular Beatitudes

Blessed are the self-confident because they rule the world.

Blessed are positive-thinkers because they don't need anybody's comfort.

Blessed are the cocky and assertive because they get what they want.

Blessed are those who hunger for fame because they get reality TV shows.

Blessed are the vengeful because they get respect.

Blessed are the impure, pleasure-seekers because they see a good time.

Blessed are those who beat their opponents because the victors write the history books.

Blessed are the popular because everybody loves them.

The French New Wave Cinema Series posters are an announcement of a series of film screenings held at Art Center College of Design. These hand silk-screened posters are an attempt to take certain aspects of the visual aesthetic of the movements time period and re-contextualize it in a more contemporary fashion. By doing so the posters are emulating what the screenings are doing, re-contextualizing the films in a contemporary setting. Each silkscreened poster measures 22x33 inches and can be cut down into a six page book.

Top Eleven Reasons Why the Reformed Theologian Did NOT Cross the Road

11. A woman already crossed. We don’t follow women.

10. We don’t believe the road is safe. It wasn’t built between 1500-1700 A.D.

9. We believe that “road crossing” ceased with the death of the last Apostle or the completion of the New Testament.

8. The crossing guard was only helping people cross from one side to the other, so we are suspicious. Is this a denial of double pre-destination?

7. Neither Romans 9 or John 6 say anything about crossing roads. Therefore, it is unbiblical.

6. The “Walk” sign was gender neutral. It made us mad.

5. The road was called Tiber Ave. 

4. John Wesley said that God’s prevenient grace would pave the way, but we have to take the steps ourselves. What a load!

3. We were not elected to cross before the foundation of the road.

2. Piper said that God is most glorified when we are most satisfied on our side of the road.

1. The pub is on this side of the road.

It’s ok to laugh. :)

Core77 | State of Interaction Design: Diverging | David Malouf

So it is with sadness that I announce that in the last year IxD, as a community of practice, has faced its strongest challenge to date. We have shifted from converging and assimilating to a community that is ever rapidly diverging.
