Got slapped upside the head last night…

Skilled Workman Posted on August 29, 2009 by David BergslandAugust 29, 2009

As those of you who know me have probably figured out, I’m going through a major period of adjustment in my life. Last night my remote stopped on a broadcast by Joyce Meyers. Man, that woman can preach! She really helped me see some things about myself that need serious work. The Holy Spirit comes through again. Thank you, Lord. It’s good to be reminded that even though I may have an accurate vision of where the … Continue reading →

Making sense of your life…

Skilled Workman Posted on August 27, 2009 by David BergslandAugust 27, 2009

Easier said than done, huh? I’ve been contemplating this issue now that I’ve “retired” — wondering what the Lord would have me do with the rest of  my life. I tend to go by what He blesses. But that is certainly not a reliable indicator. You have to make certain of several things to do that: Are you following His lead? If not any blessings on your direction are probably from the Creep. Are you hearing from … Continue reading →

A new book release: Practical Font Design: FontLab 4.6

Skilled Workman Posted on August 17, 2009 by David BergslandAugust 17, 2009

A journey with an experienced font designer through the creation of a new OpenType font developed for release. This is also part of the training materials for the apprentices of the Hackberry Font Foundry. That’s the blurb on Lulu. This is the first limited release on my Practical Font Design book. It is limited because it’s done on FontLab 4.6 and FontLab 5 has been out for quite a while. As you know, Hackberry Fonts is a … Continue reading →

Knowing when to move…

Skilled Workman Posted on August 9, 2009 by David BergslandAugust 9, 2009

One of the largest difficulties in my life is easing myself into a project. My normal response is to get really excited and go gung ho ’til I’ve got it as far as I can go. I’ve got a new postulant at Radiqx and what I want to do is start dumping stuff on the poor man and just overwhelm him with input. Now, of course, I don’t think it is overwhelming but it always is to … Continue reading →

Being ready: this is not optional!

Skilled Workman Posted on August 9, 2009 by David BergslandAugust 9, 2009

I was praying this morning and was brought back to the verses in Matthew 24 about his next coming in power. I could talk for hours about how I think that might work. What His name might be. Who will be raptured and when. But I was reminded by the words of my favorite pastor. I was her associate pastor for many years, and I taught quite a bit on end-times speculation (for that is what it … Continue reading →

If design is your calling, it’s your ministry

Skilled Workman Posted on July 22, 2009 by David BergslandJuly 22, 2009

Oh my God — NO! We do not need Bible thumping obnoxious brats in graphic design. We are to be salt, not spice One of the most difficult things for a new Christian to realize is that beating people over the head with Jesus is counter-productive. Jesus called us the salt of the world. Salt has a very special job and it is used in very special ways when we eat. Salt is a preservative It keeps … Continue reading →

Good design cares: book review

Skilled Workman Posted on July 20, 2009 by David BergslandJuly 20, 2009

I was sent David Barringer’s book There’s Nothing Funny About Design to review. It was an interesting read. First, let me say that if I hadn’t been asked to read it, I never would have done so. It’s for a world I do not inhabit. This is an intellectually stimulating, very entertaining read Of course it is. It won the 2008 Winterhouse Award for Design Writing. This is an award out of AIGA for writers about design … Continue reading →

It’s all vanity, so why bother?

Skilled Workman Posted on July 16, 2009 by David BergslandNovember 25, 2021

So, why do we do the things we do? I certainly hope that your answer is not “because I want to”. It would be nice to be able to assume that we are all doing what we do because of a higher level of motivation than that. But Solomon had it right… Again I am reminded of Oswald Chamber’s statement that you can always tell who the true believers are by the fact that they are sitting … Continue reading →

Do you pray while you are shopping?

Skilled Workman Posted on July 8, 2009 by David BergslandJuly 8, 2009

If not, why not? God has clearly indicated that He cares deeply about everything we do down to the smallest detail. In fact, his smallest details are much more minute than I am capable of keeping track of on any real level. How far should you take this? As far as you like. My experience is that the Lord delights in our attempts to understand him better and use his wisdom more deeply in our lives. So … Continue reading →

Who owns the internet & why do we care?

Skilled Workman Posted on July 8, 2009 by David BergslandJuly 8, 2009

Fred Showker in his latest monthly DT&G newsletter has an excellent article on internet ownership that we all need to read. Internet anarchy threatens civilization — and no I  do not think this is an overstatement. Now as a believer, I concede that this might be necessary to enable  the Antichrist to take control. But, even though I long for that day [so I can go home], that is not a reason to allow internet anarchy and … Continue reading →
