Meeting Jesus today an introduction

Skilled Workman Posted on March 24, 2020 by David BergslandJuly 31, 2020

Meeting Jesus today is an introduction to the most amazing man who ever lived. He’s so incredible that He took down all the external barriers. No one can stop you. Even the requirements from you are very simple. Here they are in a list. 1: You must believe that Jesus is the Son of God. He earned the power to forgive you of all your sin, as the only sinless man—who died on the cross to save you. … Continue reading →

Some free font design resources

Skilled Workman Posted on March 9, 2020 by David BergslandMarch 9, 2020

This is just a quick note about some free font design resources which provide good typographic knowledge. I’m mentioning this because a large portion of my readers don’t come out of a professional graphic design or typographic background. These things are often not known by authors whose background is mostly found in Office and free design apps. The longer you work in page layout, the more important fonts and font design become for many if not most … Continue reading →

Personal intimacy with Yeshua changes everything

Skilled Workman Posted on March 5, 2020 by David BergslandJuly 16, 2020

For me, the most important thing I’ve ever learned is that personal intimacy with Yeshua changes everything. Currently, most of the church ignores this simple fact. To my horror, even churches preaching the gospel about the blood and the cross, focusing on new converts and leading them to the Lord, often don’t mention this from the pulpit. All of their services are evangelistic. As far as I can tell, the pastors and teachers who know this don’t … Continue reading →

Finding sin freedom is rarely taught

Skilled Workman Posted on February 3, 2020 by David BergslandMarch 23, 2020

Finding sin freedom is rarely taught, and teaching about this is getting more scarce. Actually, the bondage of sin is rarely mentioned. So, no one knows that freedom from sin is even possible. Few know before they meet Jesus that this issue even exists. “Do you not know that we who were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into His death? Therefore we were buried with Him by baptism into death, that just as Christ was raised … Continue reading →

Our Lord delights in the little things

Skilled Workman Posted on September 22, 2019 by David BergslandMarch 23, 2020

One of my major joys comes from the fact that our Lord delights in the little things. My wife and I are both creative artists in many fields. One of the reasons the Lord brought us together is to be able to support each other in our creative endeavors. I’ve written several times about that unique way we are made in His image—our creativity. After all, He created it all from nothing, and John 1 makes it … Continue reading →

By retaining comprehensive Godly focus we’re fruitful

Skilled Workman Posted on September 8, 2019 by David BergslandSeptember 8, 2019

Because His imminent return grows closer, retaining comprehensive Godly focus becomes even more important. In our Western civilization, the pressures to lose our sense of reality have become nearly overwhelming. You need to work on that. After 45+ years of walking with Jesus, I still need to work on it often. Reality?! What’s that? Here I may lose several of you. If you have not realized yet that scripture is literally true, you need to talk with … Continue reading →

Christian global warning principles

Skilled Workman Posted on July 19, 2019 by David BergslandJuly 19, 2019

So, how can I explain Christian global warning principles without offense? In this day and age, it may not be possible. People seem to be actively seeking to be offended. Being offended does does not actually require thought. As a believer who takes scripture literally, I do need to affirm that the globe is getting warmer. I’m not surprised. In fact, as Roger Melquist told me, “Of course it’s getting warmer. It has been ever since the … Continue reading →

InDesign CC [2019] shows solid growth

Skilled Workman Posted on November 24, 2018 by David BergslandNovember 24, 2018

As usual, Adobe continues to do good work on their apps. In fact, InDesign CC [2019] shows solid growth which is remarkable on such a mature piece of software. Again, there’s virtually nothing done to help to publish ePUBs and no direct tie-in to KDP. As I’ve said many times, Kindle has fallen behind in many areas. But then most people are publishing straight from Word. I could write pages about such short-sightedness. But it wouldn’t change anything … Continue reading →

This is arguably the best site for paid fonts designed by professionals. Last year [the first year], the sale was excellent. I imagine it will be this year also.

Impatience guilt during transition can be tough

Skilled Workman Posted on September 6, 2018 by David BergslandMarch 23, 2020

I’m reminded again that impatience guilt during transition can be tough. As mentioned, we have just made a huge move, to a brand new town [for us]. Due to many reasons, getting the house set up into a home this time takes far too long. So, I sit here—with a little time to relax and reflect—getting anxious because nothing seems to be happening. Actually, throughout the move, the Lord has been making His presence wonderfully known. We’ve … Continue reading →
