Simplifying Life

I am what Hauge [a professor at APU] would call A Lifer, someone who has been raised in the church. Consequently, I have built up this mass of Theology, which I try to live out every day. It is mentally draining. I have begun to think to much. Now, don't think I am saying that theology is bad, it is necessary. I had forgotten why I was doing the things I was doing. I was caught up in the rules and routines of life and had forgotten why I was living. Simplifying... That seems to be the only solution. I am trying to get back to the roots of what it means to be a Christ follower.

My faith is not the only thing undergoing a refining and pruning. I have been trying to simplify my art. I just can't get enough of minimalism and simplicity in design. Here are just a few pieces I have found. They are so simple yet the simplicity of the design does not detract from the power of the message.

Optimism vs. Pessimism (via. Because Studio)Look at more from this design studio... Because Studio

I challenge all of you to think about why you do what you do... and Simplify.
