Nice Videos on the Ground Zero Memorial

Click here for a couple of videos explaining the architecture of the ground zero memorial as well as the other buildings in the area: http://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2011/08/30/us/sept-11-reckoning/ground-zero.html.

Also, here is a website showing all the major memorials for September 11th that have been completed so far: 9/11 memorials.

IF - Boundary

It fascinates me what can constitute an urban boundaries.  In a large number of cases the natural terrain influences the artificial development such as the mountains and ocean in Rio.  But the artificial can bound the natural – a prime example being the parks in New York City.  Here is an illustration I did of Bryant Square park from directly above:

SN - The Mustard Seed

I have always had the (bad) habit of sketching during sermons so I thought I would try to make them a regular feature on my blog.  Last week Saji preached on the mustard seed parable.

And a bonus one showing a watcher blowing his trumpet.

IF - Mysterious

Anytime I read a great book or look upon a great work of art or study a great work of philosophy, I feel like I am getting just a glimpse of the mysteries of reality - as if looking through a keyhole into an expansive room.

IF - Disguise

Jacob disguises himself as Esau to receive Issac's blessing.
