DJ Jazzy Jeff And The Fresh Prince
I thought I'd share a playlist with you all. I found this really great online streaming site called SeeqPod. You can do a search over the internets and it finds all kinds of mp3's that people have stored on ftp sites.
Anyway, here's a blast from the past.

Abort73
You ever question the power of Facebook? I found out about a ministry that I'm already in love with called Abort73...through an ad on Facebook.
And I love this ministry.
Abort73 is a ministry that is fighting to protect the lives of unborn babies. They are not fighting with silly
slogans, clinic bombings, or "chains of life". They are fighting with education. Their website is packed full of
information. A lot of it is stuff I just don't want to see. But some people have to see to believe that there is an actual life being taken.
I love how they operate. Since their weapon is information, much of their resources go toward their website. They are so sincere about their ministry of education, they have what they call a "flex price" for their merchandise. In other words, if you want, you can pay what it cost them to make the product. Or, you can pay more if you feel led to do so, to further the ministry of Abort73. Here's an example:
Their explanation of the flex price is this: " By allowing the buyer to set their own price, we've made our shirts even more affordable for those with little money to spare, while giving those who are willing and able to pay more the opportunity to invest a few more dollars into this crucial ministry."
Did I say I love this ministry?"
Watch this video and then go to their website and buy something. I'm buying the shirt I showed above.
Art For Digital Signage
We use digital signage all over the church to promote events, programs, sermon series, book store happenings, etc. How nice would it be show every now and then something without a time, date, name, information or location?
That's exactly what we've decided to do. Not that we are getting rid of the promotional info on the digital signage, but rather mixing in something just for artistic value. Something that reflects God and our faith in Him. Something that allows us creative types to use our gifts to glorify God.
These two images are the first to show up in the digital signage. I hope that it reflects love and adoration to God, reflects who we are as broken, sinful people, what Christ has done for us, and everything else about the glorious gospel.

Burger King Shroom and Swiss
This is brilliant. Weird...but brilliant.
Vintage Design
For some reason, I'd choose old vintage-retro over modern or futuristic everytime. It doesn't matter if it's fashion, architecture, furniture, product design. I just like it better.
These designs, while modernly done, still keep the spirit of vintage in tact.

New Website To Launch On October 27th
It's time. Sugar Creek has grown, and technology has grown. We are launching phase 1 of the new website next Monday. We gotta lot to do between now and then, but when we are done done, the site will rock. We're using Drupal and integrating cms, and a few bells and whistles. There will be a blog...in fact a lot of the ministry pages will be blog based. But, I'm excited about the general blog page. This will afford the staff to blog on a larger scale than just their ministry focus. Should be pretty cool.
Here's a mockup of the front page. (click image to see full-size)

New T-Shirt Design - Vote For Me!
C28 has a really cool site that is very similar to Threadless...but more faith-based stuff. I've submitted a couple of designs there just for fun and have gotten some good feedback. If I get enough votes, I get some cash and they will actually print my shirt and sell it. How cool would that be?
So, click on the link to vote for me!

I'm On The Cover Of Seth Godin's Newest Book
I received an advance copy of Godin's new book, Tribes...and I'm on the cover. Well, I'm on the back of the
cover...and my picture is pretty small...and there's hundreds of other people as well. But, I'm on the cover!
And yes, if you'd like an autographed portrait, I can do that for you.
Bobby Chandler is a quirky guy. He loves jazz, but wears thrift store t-shirts. He wants to look mean, but likes to listen to musicals. He can go for weeks without shaving, but enjoys getting mani/pedis.
He's weird alright.
He's also the Director of Communications at Sugar Creek Baptist Church.
And, he's a designer. You can take a look at his portfolio at Bobby Does Design.
Bobby often refers to himself in the third person.
