Christianity a religion among many

Last updated on: September 18, 2013 at 8:27 am By David Hayward

Isn’t religion a strange thing? And doesn’t it do strange things to us? Aaron Alexis goes on a shooting rampage and one of the burning questions is, “Why would a Buddhist do such a thing?” If he was a Muslim many would conclude that he did it because of his religion. If he was a Christian others would wonder what went wrong with his Christian background that would lead him to this. Religion has created great people as well as... Read more

what kind of success do you want?

Last updated on: September 17, 2013 at 7:33 am By David Hayward

I did this cartoon almost 7 years ago! Wow! I’m the first to admit that I want success in my business and financial life. But I suggest that Jesus is the wrong person to model your life after if you want to enjoy popular success during your lifetime. It totally depends on what kind of success you want. Do you want to be successful in the world? Or do you want to be successful in yourself? I don’t think the... Read more

changing in spite of resistance

Last updated on: September 16, 2013 at 9:50 am By David Hayward

The resistance to change is enormous and manifold. It comes from all kinds of directions: family, friends, peers, life, even our own hearts. It requires an incredible amount of decision and courage, especially when we know change is urgent. Perhaps it is coming out in whatever way… sexually or theologically. Whatever the case, our inner change must eventually manifest itself outwardly. Then a particular fearlessness is necessary. At The Lasting Supper we provide a safe place for you to explore,...

so God neither slumbers nor sleeps?

Last updated on: September 15, 2013 at 7:58 am By David Hayward

Purchase an affordable print of this cartoon. Some lighthearted humor this morning. When I was pastoring a congregation I sometimes felt like it was an hour long attempt to keep people awake. But not only awake, but interested. But not only interested, but on fire! Exhausting. I eventually learned it was just about being. Being real. Being honest. Being raw. Being authentic. Being… together. The Lasting Supper Read more

God said it I believe it

Last updated on: September 14, 2013 at 8:45 am By David Hayward

You can by all kinds of my cartoons like this one, art and Sophias, originals and reproductions, in my online gallery! I had a funny thought last night. I’m painfully aware that many people don’t find funny what I find funny. At least I thought it was funny. I thought: what if the early councils where they canonized books of the bible were the same as, say, our Pulitzer Prize or National Book Award? It was their way of saying,... Read more

even if you don’t believe in heaven you can still go

Last updated on: September 13, 2013 at 7:35 am By David Hayward

Did you know that even if you don’t believe in heaven you can still go there? I have done a couple of cartoons in the past about Pope Francis. For example, back in May when he suggested atheists could go to heaven, I did a couple of cartoons, The Pope Versus the Vatican, and The Pope, The Vatican and Fishers of Men. Pope Francis is being recognized as open-minded and generous. Michael Day responded with his article in The Independent,... Read more

questions for steeples

Last updated on: September 12, 2013 at 4:32 pm By David Hayward

You can buy my art, cartoons, and Sophias, both original work and reproductions, in my gallery. Someone sent me a picture of a cross being removed from a church steeple. I immediately imagined it being replaced with a huge question mark. Question everything. Let yourself doubt. Don’t be afraid as you enter the land of promise rather than the land of guarantees. Need a safe place to question along with others? Come and join us at The Lasting Supper. Read more

Pastor Terry Jones’ Failed Attempt to Barbecue Qurans

Last updated on: September 12, 2013 at 7:26 am By David Hayward

I drew this cartoon back in 2010 when Pastor Terry Jones planned to burn a Quran. He called that off. But his congregation did burn one in March of 2011. Jones was arrested yesterday while on his way to burn 2,998 Qurans in memory of the victims of the 9/11 attacks. He’s been charged with the felony of the unlawful conveyance of fuel. He’s also being charged with the unlawful open-carry of a firearm. He will also face charges of... Read more

women are just for marriage and motherhood

Last updated on: September 11, 2013 at 8:58 am By David Hayward

I’m always surprised when I critique certain unlovely aspects of religion and some people suggest that this only happens in fundamentalist denominations in the USA. Not! This can happen anywhere in the world in any organization. Someone sent me this link, 6 Reasons to Not Send Your Daughter to College, written by a Roman Catholic. Here they are: She will attract the wrong types of men. She will be in a near occasion of sin. She will not learn to be... Read more

silence as key to Pastor Dad Mark Driscoll’s ministry

Last updated on: September 10, 2013 at 1:44 pm By David Hayward

Any regime will work if the silence of the masses is kept. Those in authority rule. Those ruled submit silently. If only people would be quiet, you could do anything to them. Silence keeps the machine running smoothly. This is the strategy of Mark Driscoll’s ministry at Mars Hill Church. It is doubly effective because the bible is used to reinforce it. I am grateful that Driscoll is so clear on his intentions. And generous! He preached an 81 minute... Read more
