a biblical approach on multimedia

for hours i've been searching the internet about having a Biblical perspective on multimedia...but after hours of surfing...i ended up with nothing!

This is the second week of PRI (Pacific Rim Institute) a post-secondary institute that provides a Christ-like worldview on things that most of our incoming college students need. This one year (or even two years) of boot camp will instil Bible based character to young people who will engage in an all out battle with Satan’s worldviews. My sister is one of the pioneer students who are enrolled in the system. She’s a bit over aged but I think PRI is making a huge difference in her standing as a believer.

Since PRI is going to be ladderized through TESDA in the coming months, I’ve been struggling to answer the call of volunteering to teach in the area of Multimedia Arts. I wanted to share my thoughts and life principle on how I conceptualize designs and how I instil a bit of me and my beliefs through my designs. If you think about it, it’s kinda easy...but then I realized that it’s harder than it looks! I had a problem communicating what I wanted to say...i know how it works but putting it into a systematic outline where everyone can benefit from is much more complex! So I searched the internet...and as I said earlier...my search was a disappointment. Nothing turned up...I googled my topic with different key words but still...nothing! so...I decided to make my own outline!

Starting today...I will devote my spare time in studying and conceptualizing the topical progression of MULTIMEDIA ARTS ACCORDING TO THE BIBLE! It will be a short course that will tackle the essential background of arts and correlating it with Biblical principles. I believe that true art expresses absolute beauty from an absolute source!

Please pray for me as I start to go out my comfort zone and really challenge myself in this personal project. I have not done anything like this. All I know is that God placed a burden in my heart and this is how I’m going to respond...with a positive will! As the lesson on Sunday stated...”The battle is the Lords...” so victory is guaranteed!

what can Bible doctrine benefit me???

EVERYTHING!!! health...wealth...and the right management of the details of life!

If there is one thing that really got me through thick and thin...that's the Word of God! The radical teachings of Christ about loving your enemies and forgiving someone over and over and over again has proven to be very beneficial in my relationships and also my personal growth.

The Bible is so powerful that the truths found in one passage does not and will never contradict another principle found on a different verse. The Word of God, according to Hebrews 4:12 is alive and powerful...sharper than any two edged sword...so sharp that it can divide the soul from the spirit! The concept of the Bible being the mind of Christ in 1 Corinthians 2:16 blows me away...can you believe it??? the mind of the all powerful, infinite and sovereign God is made available in written form for the benefit of those who believe! WOW!

If you are reading this and cannot comprehend the vastness of how gracious our God is...then you my friend are lost...i will pray that God would knock on the heart and soul of anyone who reads this post and give them the desire for more information!
