					<description><![CDATA[Waiting to Reap (pictured above), by Stephen Rountree, is an original painting in acrylic on salvaged, early 1900s barn wood, lightly coated in white pickling stain. The encouraging words of Galatians 6:9 are hand-transferred onto the wood in distressed lettering. Waiting to Reap is available in the shop today. Are you tired yet? You might [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Our raison d&#8217;être Artists, crafters, writers, and appreciators of the arts know that nothing is created without some purpose. The purpose may seem insignificant, but it&#8217;s there, as a thing&#8217;s reason for existence. Our Presbyterian friends, among others, are familiar with the Westminster Shorter Catechism, a series of questions and answers that teach truths from [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[The story is told of a little girl who was suffering from a rare and serious disease. Her only chance of recovery appeared to be a blood transfusion from her five-year-old brother, who had miraculously survived the same disease and had developed the antibodies needed to fight it. As best he could, the doctor explained [&#8230;]]]></description>

It was my first trip south of the U.S., and Costa Rica was full of new sights and sounds. But one familiar sound [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Do you consider yourself creative? Do you find pleasure in making things? Maybe you spend free hours practicing a certain craft. Perhaps you paint, or draw, or design things. Or maybe you&#8217;re someone who says, &#8220;I&#8217;m not very creative,&#8221; because you don&#8217;t do any of those things. Creativity, however, is not only about making fine [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Several of these smaller sculpture/signs are under way at the moment. I like these pieces because they&#8217;re a simple metaphor for the work God does in rescuing everyone who trusts in Christ to take the punishment for their sin. Jesus&#8217; sacrifice on the cross enables God&#8217;s forgiveness and mercy toward those who trust in Him [&#8230;]]]></description>

My kids make fun of me for the way I text. That&#8217;s life. When I receive a text, it’s usually from my wife, or a close [&#8230;]]]></description>
