Utilize Christian comics to fulfill the Lord's mission.
My Testimony: (We encourage members to share briefly about how their faith in Christ has impacted their lives.)
I have always been a Christian all my life, but haven't dedicated my life to the Lord until 17 years ago. I am not an artist of comics, but a couple of years ago, the Lord has charged me with a mission to help evangelize children, particularly those who are not in a Christian environment. Every child (and even adult) has or likes to have a "hero" in his/her life...that's where Jesus comes in! These children may not be immediately drawn to Christ, but with God's intervention will at least have had the opportunity to be exposed to Him and with possible future recall be drawn to Him at last.
Dream Job: (If you could have your dream job in the comics industry, what would it be?)
Distributor of Christian comics to children with the purpose to one day evangelize them.
Favorite Comic Creators:

A few years ago, I read the book "The Purpose Driven Life" only to wake up one morning months later with a mission the Lord had bestowed unto me. I don't understand why me, because I don't possess any talent in drawing comics whatsoever. My mission…
"Daniel, your help is extremely welcome. Sorry I missed your posting. I am working on the scripting of the story and will reach out to you as soon as I put some of the materials together. Bear with me as this is all new to me, and I am praying for…"
"Very good point, Brian. That is my fear as well. Perhaps I should stick to Plan A. Ephesians 4:7 says: "But to each one of us grace has been given as Christ apportioned it." I will do my part, and if it is God's will that the message reaches the…"
"The modern day Jesus idea is pretty cool. The issue is something Jesus said himself in parable. Remember when He spoke of the rich man that died and asked for a drop of water? And then afterwards said, let me please go visit my sons so they won't…"
"Thanks for your posting, Paul. Originally I was thinking about using the gospels to formulate the comic, however, lately I had an expanded idea to depict a modern day Jesus figure in modern day scenes that parallell the exact ones in the gospels to…"
"We are on the same page Willie. When ever the Lord permits me, I use Christian Manga Art in teaching children the gospel. I do have some free time and if there is anyway I can help, I would like to offer what God has given me. Let me know what you…"
"hey willie! that sounds really cool! i'm wondering- do you have a vision for what sort of Christian comcis you want to do? will you be writing them? all of that can help in acquiring talent. i would love to help out in anyway which you would like…"
"Hi Tad!

"Cool page! I truly believe that language is key in getting the message across, but illustrated in comics even stronger as it gives the visual effect that nothing else can. I guess since I am fond of languages (I speak six languages myself), I do…"
"I would admit it would be a lot of fun to make a Jesus from the Gospel of Mark. First time he walks into a church, he casts out a demon from one of the church members! Prolly a gossip. Still, exciting stuff."

"Thanks for posting your comments, Brian. I assure you, not a day goes by without prayer for guidance in realizing this ministry. In fact, interestingly enough, I believe that is how I eventually got to CCAS. He is awesome in His ways! I agree there…"
"There is something correct in this, I agree. Comics and specifically animation, are very viable teaching forms of media. They've been used as ministry tools for 30 years now. I believe there are people doing this already presently on CCAS. I wish…"

Hi ya, I know you like Christian comics so I know you'll love The Word for WORD Bible Comic, (Unabridged, historically accurate graphic novel of the Bible with a high view of scripture. For ages 15+)
To complete the first book I need your help, as I am raising funds on Kickstarter. My passion is to get God's Word in full into the hands of young believer and unbelievers and comic lovers of all ages, in the hope they will come to really know God. Please check it out at the KS page, it's going well but I still need lots of backers so I hope as a CCAS member you'll please pledge to support this project...

Consider the words of C.S. Lewis:
"If there lurks in most modern minds the notion that to desire our own good and to earnestly hope for the enjoyment of it is a bad thing, I suggest that this notion has crept in from Kant and the Stoics and is no part of the Christian faith. Indeed, if we consider the unblushing promises of reward and the staggering nature of the rewards promised in the Gospels, it would seem that our Lord finds our desires, not too strong, but too weak. We are half-hearted creatures, fooling around with drink and sex and ambition when infinite joy is offered us, like an ignorant child who wants to go on making mud pies in a slum because he cannot imagine what is meant by the offer of a holiday at sea. We are far too easily pleased."
