DMDC update

Sam and Soph are celebrating the 2 year birthday of their blog. Except for these six posts in 2004 and 2005, this blog started properly in early May 2006, with this post. When I let the cat out of the bag, my aim was to be: concise, colourful, original and insightful. I think to varying degrees, I’ve kept the aim the same for the last two years.

In February this year, I changed the address to davemiers.com and made the blog into a 3-pronged business. Designing is the most cumbersome part of dmdc. It takes longer to produce work for someone else than it does for yourself, but I’m enjoying the websites and other design work I’m currently working on. Writing is probably the most stressful part of dmdc. Deadlines are hard to keep, but I think I’ve been able to produce some good material. Speaking is the part of dmdc that brings the most joy. It’s such a privilege to be able to proclaim Jesus to teenagers around New South Wales, encourage their youth leaders and see different styles of youth ministry. Although, it’s a bit weird getting paid to do it!

Thanks for reading, supporting and friending dmdc and its owner… warm fuzzies all ’round! (Bonus warm fuzzy for each commenter)

Jesus Life Culture Design #1

Hey, Hey it’s Saturday! Do you like the new name of this Saturday post? It pretty much describes the 4 main areas that I use to categorise regular posts and links. The other finalist was Hey, Hey it’s Saturday! Row liked it, but I think it’s a bit lame…

Good Weekend

The post title says it all! Here are 4 snapshots from the last couple of days. On Friday night I spoke at the Blue Mountains Youthsurge – the sketch of me was drawn by a kid during my interview. The talk was okay – but I’ll be making some significant changes for when I do it again in a couple of weeks.

Good weekend

Good sleep in on Saturday. Won soccer 8-0 (scored 1 set up 3 or 4). Took some photos in the city. Had dinner with Row and Ruth after equip. Went with Row, Robyn (Row’s mum), Rach (Row’s sister) and Nath (Rach’s husband) in the Mothers Day Classic at the Domain this morning. Relaxed arvo. Scott Petty gave a great talk this evening at Senior High. It was the 2nd in a 3 part series on Jesus: Prophet, Priest and King. Now finishing the easiest essay of my life! Peaceout.
