Your best ‘red doodle’ yet, I’d love to see what you could do with this as a larger scale work.

this is pretty moving. i lost my grandma in september and had similar effects. great woman who gave of herself constantly and without any thought of what she’d get in return.

Jer,

Man, I had to fight back the tears on this one.

Thanks for sharing.

My grandpa passed away in ‘05, and I still miss him.

Your art piece is very unusual Jeremy and represents Dad well. In his quiet way Dad was a giving person. Not only did he help build churces and a Bible school, but he tried to improve the food the people ate. He loved to talk to people one on one about the Lord and give them a chance to accept Jesus into their life. What a dad! I think of him every day and would love to see how he’s worshiping God before the throne!

Jeremy,
I knew your grandparents, Larry & Eunice when she was teaching at ENC. I have enormous respect for both of them. I met you when I visited NTS with your grandmother and stayed in your home while I was a senior in college. Your art and especially this piece inspired by Larry communicate enormous depth. Thank you.

Jeremy,
Even as a little boy, you had a great imagination and very creative, even on the church tables and doors. Those days will be remembered to be treasured, as your Grandfather and Grandmother in the Church.
May god continue to bless your ministry of Art.

Jeremy – you don’t know me but I called your grandpa Uncle Lawrence. He is my dear grandma’s (Mary) brother. Growing up we did not get to see Uncle Lawrence & Aunt Eunice often because they were usually living in another country. So when they were home on furlough, I always looked forward to seeing them and hearing stories. They both made an impression on my life with their genuineness. I have enjoyed getting to know your mother now online and learning about her family. I just wanted to let you know that this post “The Secret…” moved me to tears. What a beautiful tribute to such a great man. Thank you for sharing.
