Jesus warned that causing harm to “little ones” who believe in Him, whether children (Matthew 18) or the vulnerable (Luke 17), would bring severe judgment, worse than drowning with a millstone. Maybe Christians should take care not to offend anyone through words, actions, or systemic behavior.

Offenses come
Jesus warned that offenses are inevitable (Luke 17), and as sinners, we both cause and endure them. As Christians, we must reflect on how our words, actions, and systems may harm others—especially the vulnerable. How do you protect the “little ones” from stumbling through your influence

Protected?
Like many modern Christians, the ancient Israelites became convinced that God was obligated to provide divine protection. (Ez 22:1-12). Just as Ezekiel warned Israel that they could not manipulate God, we should remember that God may also require an accounting from the Church. How are living out Christ's commands to love God and to love your neighbor?

Rating our mental gymnastics
In spite of Jesus's clear warning to the rich that they are already reaping their rewards and should not expect to have rewards in Heaven (Luke 6), Western Christians expend great effort to dilute the warnings of Jesus and to advocate the wealthy in their congregations (James 5). How do reconcile your wealth with these warnings?

High Steppin
Christians have long received hope from passages like Luke 6:17-26. Perhaps we should be reading the passage as an indictment on our self-interest driven lives instead of as a secret password for entering paradise. What do you want to be doing when Jesus returns? Will you be loving in Word or deed (Jn 3)?

When will God fix 'them'
We all feel the pain of sin and cry out to God, “When will You act?” (Habakkuk 1). Yet Christians often disagree on which sins matter most, using vague language and overlooking systemic wrongs like racism, and laws that mistreat immigrants and children to starve. What sins do you long to see end—and are you willing to name the ones you or your institutions still commit, not just those you wouldn’t?

Get Over Here!
Colossians 2:8 warns us of being taken, like spoil by the world's way of thinking, instead of following the teachings of Jesus Christ. Many Christians believe that they have not been taken captive by the world's way of thinking, but still hate their neighbors, block aid to the poor, and fail to care for the immigrant. In what ways have you come to adopt worldly thinking instead of clinging to the teachings of Christ?

Welcome
Each of the cartoons on this site is an expression of a sermon I heard in church. As a cartoonist, my method of understanding complex theological topics is to boil them down to simple images.
These images will never do justice to the sermons from which they are derived, but hopefully, they convey at least one aspect of those sermons to you, the reader.
I hope that you gain some benefit from the cartoons and will reuse them in ways that honor Christ.
