Picture Week

Picture Week

I was recently challenged to use fewer words and more pictures
in my presentations. So, I decided this week to do just that.

"All that the Father gives Me will come to Me,
and the one who comes to Me I will by no means cast out."


(John 6:37)

Seth Godin is a prolific author and deep thinker. I enjoyed listening to a podcast interview of him last week on the Carey Nieuwhof show. Godin is a marketing genius, author of 20 books, and sought-after speaker. Interestingly, he turned down an interview with the producers of Shark Tank because they told him they wanted him to be the mean shark. They promised if he did it that they would make him famous. He said it took him about 3 seconds to tell them no. Godin said they offered him two things he did not want: to be the bad guy and to be famous.

Godin believes in the power of pictures. He challenges speakers to use fewer words and more pictures in their presentations. He said not to use stock photos but ones that you take and are meaningful to you. So, I decided this week to do just that. I will post a few photos that I have taken that are meaningful to me, and I will not write as many words as I normally do. Godin says to leave room for the viewer to draw his or her own conclusions. I am looking forward to this and would like to hear back from you. Send me an email and let me know how these pictures speak to you.
Vincent Van Gogh was a gifted artist, but he had a troubled soul. He wanted to be a pastor but was rejected by the church leadership because they thought he did not dress properly and spent too much time with the people. He painted "Starry Night" while in an insane asylum in France. (Today, "Starry Night" is valued at $200-$300 million.) Sadly, Van Gogh eventually took his own life.
I took this photo of myself with "Starry Night" while visiting the Museum of Modern Art in New York City. The portrait painting that Van Gogh did of himself is located in the National Gallery of Art at the Smithsonian in Washington DC.
Praise God that He does not cast any of us away when we come to His Son, Jesus, for help.

Who will you welcome in your life today that the world may cast away?
