EN62 Baby 'P'
22/11/08 13:55 Filed in: 1 Peter
There isn't a text for this particular piece because it is something that is written across the whole Bible.
This was really difficult to do because the story was horrible. I think that one of the unnerving aspects to the news was that the events had happened so long ago, and that there are probably kids going through some similar evil right now. I guess that the sense of powerlessness in the face of such cruelty is the big idea here. Read More...
EN61 Brand and Ross
The Bible epilogue text can be found here and here (you will need to scroll down to find the exact part).
Yes, it was a major media event - perhaps whipped up by people who didn't like these two presenters, perhaps an indication of how disgraceful licence-fee wages are for such childish antics, perhaps a sense of people getting ready for harsher financial times. Anyway - it dominated the news for some time and so I weighed in with this piece that has two main ideas in it: Read More...

There was a lot of prep work for this one in the sketchbook. I am including a few of the later drafts below to give a sense of some of the last changes. Read More...

EN56 The 1967 Aborton Act

It is easy to take up extreme positions when it comes to something like Abortion. Shouting matches don't seem to be the right way forward for true gospel people, so I was interested in hearing the testimony of a woman who I featured in the top part of the strip. I didn't want to rubbish people who choose termination but to reflect the relative gravity of each situation. Read More...
EN55 Doctor Luke's Documentary

This is an interview I recently put together with an ex-student who has become a really good mate. It is really exciting that he won the Best British Doc at the London Independent Film Festival at the NFT a few weeks ago. I did a skype call to explore some of the making ideas.
Anyway - it got me thinking about Luke's Gospel which has so much in common with a well-produced and researched documentary. Read More...
EN54 Fooled by TV: not just in April
01/04/08 13:54 Filed in: Proverbs
The BBC proudly paraded this 'April Fools' piece on the 2nd of April.
My mind got working on the thought: why do we need to be told it is a joke? Why the permission? Anyway, you get the idea. Read More...

This strip uses a quote from one of my regular RE lessons. We were looking at the ten commandments and I was aiming at trying to get the kids to understand what the original meaning for Israel was. It was as if I had started a war or something! Read More...
