Show notes: On this episode I do an interview with Casey and Melissa Smith, the owners of the art store "Casey's Art Box". The shop is located out in Germantown, TN and combines retail space, gallery wall space, community gathering space, and Casey's art studio space.The dynamic duo are both former educators and have been together since the 1993 Cooper Young Festival. They've been married for almost 30 years. Casey Smith was born in Memphis and raised in Germantown. He has been creating art his whole life. His early years began at Ronnie Grisanti & Sons restaurant where he shared his love of murals. He spent 20 years teaching art to kindergarteners through high school seniors. Now Casey is ready to share his works and hopes to encourage other artists to go after their passion. Melissa Smith moved to Germantown at the beginning of her high school career at GHS. Not one to be far from her family, she attended Memphis State, but ended up graduating from the University of Memphis! While there she met and married Casey, being his number one visual art & music fan and (most importantly) best friend. After 27 years in elementary technology education, she is ready to encourage others to unleash their creative energies.The shop is open Mon-Sat, but are always standing by for any Sunday or after hours art emergencies that might arise! When you stop by be sure to ask about their customer loyalty program. I bought a few paint pens to try out.I also fill you in on some Mid-South Cartoonists Association news, including our upcoming art shows, zine deadline and monthly dinner gathering at Garibaldi's Pizza (April 1st), the MSCA Con Cards, and the Rogue's Gallery moving to Lootz Collectibles in Atoka for Free Comic Book Day.Plus I share some info on Comic Geek Speak's 20th anniversary celebration up in Reading, PA and recent Diamond acquisition by Alliance Entertainment.This week I dropped off a couple of my paintings for upcoming auctions/sales at Playhouse on the Square ("King Arthur/Spamalot") and Germantown Community Theatre ("Annie & Sandy"). Both were done in acrylics on canvas and for previous art shows at GCT. Proceeds to benefit the two theaters. I'll have new art to benefit my wallet at both theaters this year.Thanks to Casey and Melissa for talking toons with me. Hope this episode inspires you to check out their art store and create some art of your own!"Stay Tooned!"LINKS:Drawing Funny Podcast website – ⁠www.drawingfunny.com⁠Drawing Funny Podcast on Spotify – ⁠www.podcasters.spotify.com/⁠Drawing Funny Podcast on Apple – www.podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/drawing-funny/Mid-South Cartoonists Association/MSCA (Memphis, TN) – ⁠www.midsouthcartoonists.org⁠My art website – ⁠www.linworkman.com⁠Casey's Art Box (Germantown, TN) – www.caseysartbox.com/Garibaldi's Pizza (U of M) – ⁠www.garibaldispizza.com⁠Lootz Collectibles – www.lootzcollectibles.com/Rogue's Gallery Memphis – www.roguesgallerymemphis.com/Free Comic Book Day – www.freecomicbookday.com/DeSoto Arts Council  – www.desotoartscouncil.org/Comic Geek Speak/CGS podcast – www.comicgeekspeak.com/Comic Book Central podcast – www.comicbookcentral.net/Theme: ⁠“Silly Bank Heist” ⁠⁠music by Steve Oxen⁠⁠.⁠   News intro theme by David Fesliyan.©2020 ⁠Fesliyan Studios Inc.⁠ – music and sound effects used by permission.Please DO NOT add this audio content to the Youtube Content ID System.

Show notes: On this episode I do a few interviews with some of the Mid-South Cartoonists Association members. I recorded at their March monthly dinner gathering at Garibaldi's Pizza- first I talked with That Katie Jones about The Rogue's Gallery at Centerpoint Toys & Games. and then I caught up with MSCA prez Kevin L. Williams about art goings on around the M-town, including a special "shocking" announcement of a new MSCA art show at Germantown Community Theatre.The MSCA meets at the Garibaldi's U of M location on the first Tuesday of each month from 6-8pm. The next gathering is on Tuesday, April 1st! The meet-ups are free and open to the public, but be sure to bring a few bucks to order off the menu and some art to show around.The following night after work I stopped by 901 Games to discuss Con Cards with the card game's creator (and longtime MSCA and NCS member), Greg Cravens. Greg can be found there on the first Wednesday of the month at 6pm, and can be spotted at many local conventions selling Con Cards and teaching event attendees how to play the game. A new MSCA expansion deck is in the works!In the news section at the end of the episode I fill you in on some S/uper news about our long time friend Mike Norton's new "Krypto The Super-Dog" comic series and his recent Comic Geek Speak podcast appearance on episode 1997. Krypto: The Last Dog of Krypton is set to debut on June 18, 2025 from DC Comics.I update you on my recent sketchcard gigs for RRParks Cards, and share some not so super news about me no longer working at 901 Comics. Yep, I was let go just a couple days after these interviews were recorded, so I'll be promoting 901 no more.Oh, speaking of sketchcards, don't forget that I have hand-drawn sketchcards for sale at The Cellar out on Bartlett Blvd. All cards are done in markers and are $35ea. More of my art is for sale at the DeSoto Arts Council in Hernando, MS.In this episode I also include a promo for the Comic Book Central podcast. The show's host Joe Stuber interviews actors, writers, producers, directors and others who have bring comic book properties to life on TV, Broadway, film, video games, live events and beyond!I honestly don't know what my next day job is going to be... so "Stay tooned!"LINKS:Drawing Funny Podcast website – ⁠www.drawingfunny.com⁠Drawing Funny Podcast on Spotify – ⁠www.podcasters.spotify.com/⁠Drawing Funny Podcast on Apple – www.podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/drawing-funny/Mid-South Cartoonists Association/MSCA (Memphis, TN) – ⁠www.midsouthcartoonists.org⁠My art website – ⁠www.linworkman.com⁠Garibaldi's Pizza (U of M) – ⁠www.garibaldispizza.com⁠Centerpoint Toys & Games – www.facebook.com/CenterpointToys/Rogue's Gallery Memphis – www.roguesgallerymemphis.com/The Cellar Tabletop Games & Comics – www.comiccellaronline.com/Germantown Community Theatre – www.gctcomeplay.org/season-54-announcement/Playhouse On The Square  – www.playhouseonthesquare.org/Comic Geek Speak podcast – www.comicgeekspeak.com/Comic Book Central podcast – www.comicbookcentral.net/Memphis Public Libraries Comic Con 2025 – www.memphislibrary.org/events/mpl-comic-con-vendor-application/RRParks Cards – www.rrparkscards.com/Mike Norton – www.ihatemike.com/Greg Cravens – www.cravenscartoonist.com/#midsouthcartoonistsassociation#msca#memphistn#shairthelair#cgs#cartooning#supportlocal#linworkmanart#drawingfunnypodcast#drawingfunny#podcast#podperson#staytoonedTheme: ⁠“Silly Bank Heist” ⁠⁠music by Steve Oxen⁠⁠.⁠   News intro theme by David Fesliyan.©2020 ⁠Fesliyan Studios Inc.⁠ – music and sound effects used by permission.Please DO NOT add this audio content to the Youtube Content ID System.

Show notes: On this 75th episode I sit down to talk to local comics creator Ryan Ladner about his recently released 1st issue of "Memphis VS Zombies". Ryan had a successful Kickstarter campaign for this new Thrill Comics zombie comic series set in the M-town. I caught up with him out at 901 Comics East for his second signing of the weekend. I was able to pick up my Kickstarter rewards in person at the comic shop, and talk toons with him for a bit.From the Thrill Comics website: "Memphis vs. Zombies is our thrilling flagship comic that blends Memphis charm with undead chaos. Follow Walter, B.B., and a cast of quirky characters as they navigate a zombie apocalypse in the heart of the Bluff City. Packed with humor, action, and heart, MvZ is a fun and fantastical adventure you won't want to miss!"In this episode's news section I discuss details on such events as our next MSCA dinner, Rogue's Gallery at Centerpoint Toys & Games in Millington, upcoming art shows around town, Trolls at the Botanic Gardens, local comic cons, submission details for our next "The Good, The Bad, and the Sketchy" zine, and more.I also wish Joe "S/tuberman" Stuber happy anniversary for 11 years of his "Comic Book Central" podcast, and the CGS crewa happy 20th anniversary of their show "Comic Geek Speak". They celebrate 20 years of podcasting on March 25th, and will have a free in-person celebration ("dysfunctional geeky family reunion") up in Reading, PA this March 29th (click HERE for details).Congrats to both shows, and I'm excited to finally make it to 75 episodes of "Drawing Funny"!“Stay tooned!”     LINKS:Drawing Funny Podcast website – ⁠www.drawingfunny.com⁠Drawing Funny Podcast on Spotify – ⁠www.podcasters.spotify.com/⁠Drawing Funny Podcast on Apple – www.podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/drawing-funny/Mid-South Cartoonists Association/MSCA (Memphis, TN) – ⁠www.midsouthcartoonists.org⁠My art website – ⁠www.linworkman.com901 Comics East (Macon Road) – ⁠www.facebook.com⁠Garibaldi's Pizza (U of M) – ⁠www.garibaldispizza.com⁠Centerpoint Toys & Games – www.facebook.com/CenterpointToys/Rogue's Gallery Memphis –www.roguesgallerymemphis.com/⁠DeSoto Arts Council – www.desotoartscouncil.org/Memphis Urban Sketchers (art group) –www.facebook.com/groups/160831813933182Thomas Dambo's TROLLS: Save the Humans (Memphis Botanic Gardens) – www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61562495777800Thomas Dambo's TROLLS (art site) – www.thomasdambo.com/Playhouse On The Square  – www.playhouseonthesquare.org/Comic Geek Speak/CGS podcast  – www.comicgeekspeak.com/Comic Book Central podcast  – www.comicbookcentral.net/Memphis Public Libraries Comic Con 2025 – www.memphislibrary.org/events/mpl-comic-con-vendor-application/#midsouthcartoonistsassociation#msca#memphistn#garibaldispizza#901comicseast#memphisvszombies#thrillcomics#shairthelair#cgs#trolls#cartooning#satartday#roguesgallery#memphispubliclibrariescomiccon#supportlocal#linworkmanart#drawingfunnypodcast#drawingfunny#podcast#podperson#staytoonedTheme: ⁠“Silly Bank Heist” ⁠⁠music by Steve Oxen⁠⁠.⁠   News intro theme by David Fesliyan.©2020 ⁠Fesliyan Studios Inc.⁠ – music and sound effects used by permission.Please DO NOT add this audio content to the Youtube Content ID System.

We're back for episode 18, after a bit of a hiatus. We're doing everything we can to find the missing Sharethetruth children, including making efforts to get the community involved in the search. We hear from two people very closely affected by the abduction of the missing teens. And while we assess new leads we've received, Sharethetruth makes some violent moves. We've come to expect violent acts from Sharethetruth, but now they're showing they're capable of much more drastic measures than ever before. Will our community come together to stop them?http://www.sporadicphantoms.comSound attributions:CO.AGMUSIC: "The Truth" - Artem GrebenshchikovWebsite: https://www.argsound.comYouTube Channel: https://bit.ly/2UrSOiiYoutube Audio LibraryiPhone Sound effects by https://picturetosound.comYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCt2ZH6WzVKzW2xcVFVepx0AAMBEmrg_Crime Scene.Designed.Arrival Of Police.Sirens.Radio.City Noise.Barking Dogs.Footsteps_EM.mp3 – newlocknew - https://freesound.org/s/692480/Car Explosion w Debris.mp3 by PNMCarrieRailfan -- https://freesound.org/s/682062/ -- License: Attribution NonCommercial 4.0Door Slam.MP3 by FunWithSound -- https://freesound.org/s/361167/ -- License: Attribution 4.0Intense Breaking by Steve Oxen - https://www.fesliyanstudios.com/Just Breaking by David Fesliyan - https://www.fesliyanstudios.com/M1A2 Abrams Accelerating.wav by flyguy85 -- https://freesound.org/s/156919/ -- License: Attribution 3.0vroom.wav by alister667 -- https://freesound.org/s/11704/ -- License: Attribution NonCommercial 3.0

Show notes: Of course on the day I posted my last episode the news broke about Diamond Comic Distributors, Inc. filing a Chapter 11 petition for bankruptcy, and TikTok went dark just before I could finish this episode. Earlier this week I sat down with my business major and comics fangirl wife Nicki to talk about how this all could affect the comics industry in both negative and positive ways. We speculate on the possible upcoming imposed tariffs from the incoming administration and what that might mean for the printing industry- especially those that do self-publishing and/or Kickstarter campaigns for comics and books. Just how could it affect the already inflated price of comics..?! We also discuss my days of self-publishing and dealings with Diamond, as well as news about new Barnes & Noble brick & mortar stores coming, and what is #BookTok and how it is used by book fans and retailers. We exercise our First Amendment Rights quite a bit and express our opinions on how the upcoming TikTok ban (or sale) can/will affect book sales and other businesses- especially smaller businesses and content creators. I also yell at my cat Lex for being a jerk...it happens. The news was constantly changing for Diamond and TikTok as I was editing and publishing this episode. I don't have a lot of faith in our government, foreign governments, social media companies, or corporations in general to do the right thing, but and all we can do right now is wait and see how it all plays out. 2025 is definitely going to be some concerning times for comics creators, publishers, distributors, retailers, and us fans. “Stay tooned!” (and read a book!)

Show notes: I've got some news and a few of my resolutions to share with you on this solo recorded episode. It's been cold and snowy around here in the mid-south, but the snow ended and the sun came out on Saturday in time for the grand opening of the new Bricks & Minifigs location in Hernando, MS. They had an amazing turnout at the event which included a free limited edition LEGO minifig, cotton candy, cookies, cake pops, caricatures, costumed characters, the DeSoto County Ghostbusters' Ecto-17 car, Muppets, and more! My wife Nicki and I were there with the MSCA's Kevin L. Williams and Greg Cravens -and City of Hernando Mayor Chip Johnson stopped by, too. (Kevin and Tammy Thorn on Episode 69 – “Leg Godt = Play Well”.) Later this month we've also got our first Mid-South Cartoonists Association Sat-Art-Day of the year back out at 901 Comics East on Macon Road on January 25th from 10m-2pm. Our next MSCA Monthly Dinner Gathering will be on Tuesday, February 4th from 6-8pm at Garibaldi's Pizza off Walker Avenue near the U Of M. One of my resolutions is to better promote my art and my podcast, as well as other artists and podcasts. So, I've got a special offer! I am now offering free promo spot airtime on the "Drawing Funny" podcast. MSCA members and any events or businesses that support the Mid-South Cartoonists Association are welcome to send in their 15-30sec promo spot as an MP3 file. It can be to promote your art project, event appearance, Kickstarter campaign, commission availability, website, art sale, etc. Don't know how to record a commercial..? That's okay- just send me your info and he'll read it in one of the podcast's upcoming news segments. Just remember, "who/what/when/where/why/how much". I'm also looking to do promo spot swaps with other podcasts. For those commercials up to 60sec are good to submit. If you'd like to discuss your event or project in person, or be a featured guest on the podcast let me know and I'll get back with you to schedule a recording time and place. Send your MP3 formatted audio files and/or news/press releases to podcast(at)drawingfunny(dot)com. Click here to listen the latest "Drawing Funny" promo on Spotify or go to www.drawingfunny.com.

Show notes: This is part 1 of my 2024 year end wrap-up review conversation with Mid-South Cartoonists Association/MSCA president Kevin L. Williams. Kev and I grabbed some dinner and then discussed the very busy year our local cartooning association experienced in 2024. We had a full two and a half pages of notes to go over, so I broke it into two episodes and am releasing them back to back. You can find the second half of our 2hr toon talk on Episode 72 - "MSCA 2024 Review Pt. 2". We give our thoughts and recollections of 2024 art shows, festivals, conventions, gatherings, and other events in and around Memphis and the mid-south area- plus the new MSCA "The Good, The Bad, And The Sketchy" zine issues and "Drawing Funny" podcast episodes created in 2024. This was probably the busiest the MSCA has been in years, and 2025 doesn't look like it's gonna slow down any! Our first MSCA Monthly Dinner Gathering will be this Tuesday, January 7th from 6-8pm at Garibaldi's Pizza off Walker Avenue near the U Of M. We've also got our first Sat-Art-Day of the year back out at 901 Comics East on Macon Road later this month on January 25th from 10m-2pm. Hope to see you around town and the mid-south this year. Be sure to follow the MSCA's socials and website for where else the cartoonists association and I will be in 20o25. Thankfully all my con tables were near a restroom this year year, and there was even a defibrillator behind one. Glad that all my health issue bases were covered in 2024! "Stay tooned!"

Show notes: This is part 2 of my 2024 MSCA year end wrap-up review conversation with Mid-South Cartoonists Association president Kevin L. Williams. Kev and I pick up where we left off on "Drawing Funny" Ep. 71 discussing the very busy year our local cartooning group experienced in 2024. The MSCA and its members were a part of numerous art shows, festivals, conventions, gatherings, and other events in and around Memphis and the mid-south area- plus created new MSCA "The Good, The Bad, And The Sketchy" zine issues and "Drawing Funny" podcast episodes (and a new DF promo spot) for folks to check out. This was probably the busiest the MSCA and its members have been in years, and 2025 doesn't look like it's gonna slow down any! Our first MSCA Monthly Dinner Gathering will be this Tuesday, January 7th from 6-8pm at Garibaldi's Pizza off Walker Avenue near the U Of M. Later this month we've also got our first Sat-Art-Day of the year back out at 901 Comics East on Macon Road on January 25th from 10m-2pm. Be sure to follow the MSCA's socials and website for where else the cartoonists association and I will be in 2025. I went solo to many shows, so thankfully all my con tables were near a restroom this year, and there was even a defibrillator behind me at one event. It was good to have all my health issue bases covered as I got back into doing cons again in 2024! Hope to see you around the M-town and mid-south this year. Now, if you'll excuse me I've got to go pee...again. "Stay tooned!"

I've been drawing funny all my life, and for the past few years I've been producing "Drawing Funny", the pandemically inspired podcast. I'm your host, Lin Workman, and the podcast is now in its 5th season. "Toon in" as I share my latest reviews, news, and interviews. I focus on the mid-south art and convention scene. I spotlight comic creator Kickstarter campaigns, offer up some recommend reading, share art advice, and talk toons with some sketchy characters in the comics industry and fandom. You can find "Drawing Funny" at www.drawingfunny.com, on Spotify, Apple, or most anywhere you download podcasts. You can even ask your smart devices to play "Drawing Funny". "Stay tooned!"

Show notes: For this 70th episode, I took a quick trip up to Memphis to attend the Memphis Comic and Fantasy Convention at the Holiday Inn on the U of M campus. This year is the 14th anniversary for the local con. it was started by Joe Thordarson, Brandon Olmstead, and Allan Gilbreath - who also do the radio shows "Geek Tank Radio" and "Tool Talk Radio"on 98.9 The Roar. I ran into several local comic creators, some like Greg Cravens (Con Cards) and A.G. Howard (Howard Art Studios) I've known for about 4o years now! They were the two artists who mentored me when I first started airbrushing back in my late teens. Some other familiar faces (and voices) at the MCFC were Matt Bowers, Allan Gilbreath, Shawn Howe, Devin Hodges, John Martin, and Chris "The Jowers" Jowers. I also beamed aboard Station Shelby to talk with James Wheatly about the local Star Trek fan club in town. There were lots of vendors, artists, and even some LEGO to play with in the dealer's room, plus around the con there was a game room, panel room, and an autograph section. I had a great time talking toons with everyone at the con on Sunday. It's kinda crazy how many cons and art events there are in town these days! Speaking of events, I also share some info on our upcoming MSCA monthly dinner meet-up and holiday art swap at Garibaldi's Pizza on December 3rd, from 6-8pm, the Midsouth Toy Fest, and other MSCA member and industry news, including former Memphians Mike Norton and John Jackson Miller. Happy Thanksgiving, ya turkeys!

Show notes: In this 69th episode, I took a trip up the street to the new Bricks & Minifigs shop in my neck of the woods- Hernando, MS. Long time Mid-South Cartoonists Association member Dr. Kevin Thorn and his wife Tammy Blackman Thorn are the owners of not only a new franchised LEGO themed shop, but what looks to be one of the coolest shops in the mid-south area! I talked to the couple about the genesis of going into business with each other on this new Bricks & Minifigs franchise opportunity in their home town, their plans for the future of the local shop (parties, workshops, art gallery, and more!), and their love of LEGO. The Bricks & Minifigs Hernando shop will be officially opening in January 2025 (hopefully Jan. 11th), but fingers crossed they plan a soft opening on Black Friday- or as they call it, "Block Friday" and the Christmas shopping season. They were doing a "Buy Day" buying event when I stopped by to visit, and many folks were stopping buy to trade in their LEGO sets and loose bricks for cash. One cool thing about the used bricks is that the Hernando Bricks & Minifigs shop will not only be washing all the bricks they take in, they will also regularly be disinfecting all the ones in their loose bins, too! You will be able to buy new and used LEGO sets, mini-figs, and loose bricks to create your own plastic creations. This brand new Bricks & Minifigs store is located at 210 E. Commerce Street, Suite #7 in Hernando, MS. From Memphis head south on I-55 to exit 280 (Hernando/Commerce Street), turn right on Commerce Street, stay in the left lane, go past the McDonalds, and turn right after the R/R tracks. The shop is in the shopping center next to Bazar's Bakery & Restaurant, and just up the street from the DeSoto County Museum and Area 51 Ice Cream. Oh, and there's a new mural inside the shop by MSCA member Greg Cravens! I also share some info on MSCA and other local events such as our recent "The Funny Pages" art show reception at Germantown Community Theatre over the weekend, and our upcoming MSCA monthly dinner meet-up and holiday art swap at Garibaldi's Pizza on December 3rd, from 6-8pm.

Show notes: My wife Nicki and I headed downtown on Sunday to attend the Memphis Comic Expo. Unfortunately my voice had other plans..! We did have a great time in the newly remodeled Renasant Convention Center and talked toons with many of our friends- Janet and Martheus Wade, Mike Norton, John Martin, Peter Melonas, Eric McMeans, Brad Starnes, Andrea Starnes, Benito Deranzo, Greg Cravens, Jaime Wright, Sam Payne, Jerry "The King" Lawler, and met some new ones including artists Zion Titus from Maryland and Steve Messenger from Ohio. As usual, the annual "DonnieCon" was a great event, had an amazing guest line-up, amazing artists alley, and a variety of vendors. My next event will be the inaugural Memphis Monster Con at the Pipkin Building in Liberty Park. I'll be set up there with my new "Scared Silly" zine, plus plenty of prints, scketchcards, sketchcovers, stickers, buttons, and more. Hope to scare ya there!

The Sloppy Joes head over to the tavern to discuss what has been happening, but are interrupted by a blast from Auldrich's past. Auldrich does some catching up, Tolnar attempts to “turn some gambler's lives around”, and Archie drowns some newfound sorrows.

Auldrich confronts the ghosts of his past. Tolnar sneaks away from Keith and tries to form a new posse, and Archie thinks that the town's justice system is stupid.

The Sloppy Joes, holed up in Gretel's mansion, set traps for the approaching Apleighstoi ready to fight them off, hopefully with the assistance of Bonnie. Auldrich has bad dreams, and Archie flattens a frog. Also, the Centaur is in fact a dude, Jake is just stupid!

The Sloppy Joes set off from the nomadic tribes, on the run from the Undersun Military. As they have no real direction on where to go aside from just away. They set off to “cowboy around” in the desert on the surface, hoping to find Shelshy and escape with their lives. Auldrich catches feelings, and Archie is unimpressed by some squids.

Malachi was a messenger, and he prophesied of other messengers to come. Of course John the Baptist stands out as one primary fulfiller of prophesy; but all of us in some small way can be messengers who prepare the way of the Lord. This episode, our final this season, and our final weekly episode of our podcast, we reflect on five years of podcasting and the "messages" we have learned, loved, and hoped to share with you.   Show Notes: Connect with us on Instagram or Facebook Music: by Steve Oxen

My grandfather was an architect. I remember visiting him in his office and seeing the tools laid out on his basement drafting board and being captivated by the idea that someone could plan such large buildings. As I've grown older I often think of similarities between designing and drafting a building and our efforts to conscientiously plan and live a life. In this episode we study the words of two prophets--Haggai and Zechariah--focused on the reconstruction of the temple at Jerusalem and, concurrently, the reconstruction of the Israelites life with the Lord. Study along and consider how you can better build your life this next year. Show Notes: Connect with us on Instagram or Facebook Music: by Steve Oxen  

At the end of the book of Zephaniah, the prophet expresses that in the last days, "the king of Israel, even the Lord, is in the midst of thee". Imagine for a moment: what if we took that verse literally and pictured arriving home today from work or school or shopping to find Him in our living room. What would you think and feel if He were there? Would there be relief or reservation? Would there be excitement or anxiety? Would you rush to meet him or would you want  to rush to complete some procrastinated act of kindness? Would you be ready or wish you had more time to repent? This week we study Nahum through Zephaniah and focus on three ideas that can help us better prepare for the Second Coming of Christ.

The story of Jonah is a masterpiece of scriptural story that weaves together a very human and relatable character in Jonah with a compelling illustration of the true character of the Lord interlaced with suspense and surprise. It may be one of the best books in our recent study to liken to ourselves. In this week's study we do just that and ask the question, "What am I running away from?" Show Notes: Steven J.

I remember years ago watching an episode of a hidden camera tv show where actors acted out a scene where one man, dressed as someone living on the streets, was given money by other only to have that money stolen by some mocking teenagers. The episode focused on the actions of the surrounding people who did know they were watching and actor portrayal, to see if they would intervene, comfort the victim, or just walk on. In this sort of modern day reenactment of the good Samaritan, although some did stop to help, it was surprising to the hosts of the show how many people walked by without any action. If Obadiah were to describe it he might say they "stood on the other side" or "looked on" when someone was hurt. In this episode we study two chastisements Amos and Obadiah give related to our relationship with God and His children that might be painfully relevant to us today.

Recently I heard a description of some of the reasons why members of the Church have struggled or are struggling with their faith. For a small group, they struggle because they no longer believe the Church is true. For a larger group, they struggle because they do not believe the Church is good. However, for the largest group they struggle because they do not feel like they belong in the Church. In our study this week we read two prophets speaking to people who may be felt this same lack of belonging and we identify both truths about the Lord and possible applications for us that help heal that hurt.

There's a story told almost 100 years ago in a Church magazine about a young man named Creed Haymond who ran track for his college. The night before a meet his coach offered the team alcohol to help them relax for the next day's races. Creed refused, multiple times, and to the chagrin of his coach and teammates. The end of the story is powerful (and you can read it if you click the link in our show notes), but it's actually the middle of the story itself that interests us this week. In this episode we study the great story of Daniel, Mishael, Hananiah, and Azariah and ask the question: how can I live in the modern world and be both true to my beliefs and also harmonious with others?

Hebrew prophets were valued because of their ability to foresee coming events and, then, warn people in the present. However, the true test of this foresight is, of course, whether or not these visions materialize. Today we study some of the prophet Ezekiel's most far-reaching declarations and see clear fulfillment in our own day. Show Notes: Connect with us on Instagram or Facebook Music: by Steve Oxen

I used to play a game with my seminary students called "Boo Speak" where I would invite a student to leave the room and then, with the students left in the room, pick a word that we would try and eliminate from that student's vocabulary by sheer peer pressure. Once we had decided on a word we would invite that student back in the room. I would have a conversation with the student and whenever he would say the word we would all say "boo" and/or provide other negative feedback. It was fascinating to watch as some students really did stop using the chosen word where other students became more adamant about using it. This week we finish our study of Jeremiah the prophet who was, for lack of a better phrase, "boo-ed" for his message and ministry by the very people he was trying to save, and ask ourselves what can we learn from a "boo-ed" prophet?

I love art museums, and in recent years, I've had multiple chances to attend a few and one thing I've noticed, repeatedly, is the vast breadth of color and emotion represented in the displayed art. Incredible paintings of bright flower gardens on warm days are balanced by emotional paintings of dark caverns or shrouded faces. I've come to appreciate the tug on my emotions as I feel, often in the same room, enlightened and pained, lifted by beauty and confronted with ugliness. In our study this week we figuratively walk through the Art Gallery of Jeremiah and feel many of those same emotions as we search for truths that can sustain us in moments of needed perseverance.

There are some pressing questions we must address this week: how can you make shapes and animals out of pancake batter, what's the best way to eat a strawberry, and how cay you maximize the milk-to-cookie ratio of an oreo. These questions, as outlandish as it sounds, will help us better answer other questions. How can I fast with my eye single to God's purpose? How can I truly delight in the Sabbath? How can I better recognize and emulate the Savior's ministry? This week we study our final block of scriptures from Isaiah in search of answers to these questions.   Show Notes: Connect with us on Instagram or Facebook Music: by Steve Oxen
