Explorations into theology, technology, leadership, and culture.
I’ve been asked enough times now how to calculate rates for freelance work, that I went ahead and made a little tool for beginning to dial that question in. Enjoy! Simple Freelancing Rate Calculator
On December 6 I was honored to host Matt Perman and Tim Challies at Stonebrook Church for a conference on Technology and God’s Glory. There were about 95 in attendance, and many more have asked for the sessions to be made available online. They are now viewable! Several have graciously asked about donating for the […]
I”m excited to announce the launch of the new Gospel Coalition mobile Web site that I was honored to help work on. The mobile site puts the best of their fresh content (blogs, articles, book reviews, videos, etc) at your fingertips. My role was to create the front end code, including HTML, styles, and javascript […]
One of my final projects at Desiring God was the information architecture and user experience design (interactions, interface layout, etc) of the Desiring God App for iOS. We’re quite pleased with the results.
My new favorite Bible reading Web app, eBible has just released their reading plan functionality. Select one of their 18 plans (topical, NT, OT, through the Bible), and they will send you a daily email with reminder to read.
It’s coming. I have some renewed energy and incentive to finally get this site in shape. In case you haven’t been playing along, this Summer, I undertook the reconstruction of my Web site live and in public. Well, I underestimated the impact on life that a third child would have and so lost steam. But […]
Cruciform Press was kind enough to send me an advance copy of “But God…” by Casey Lute. It came in the mail today and I’m very excited to read it. A book title that contains my favorite two words in the whole Bible by a publisher that puts out consistently solid material, how bad can […]

For theology geeks, it is Logos. (It gets really expensive when you are a musician, designer, and theology nerd!) Logos 4 for Mac has been in public alpha for quite awhile […]
Well, co-wrote. That’s a different animal. I’m pretty excited about Foundation Fireworks CS4 by Grant Hinkson, Craig Erskine, Chuck Mallott, Matthew Keefe, Hugh Griffith, and Myself. I have been using Fireworks my entire career as a Web designer. It is by far my design tool of choice. I’ve followed it from it’s earliest versions through […]
So I must have missed this one, but age old Web design resource WebMonkey.com has relaunched. It is completely revamped and is gorgeous. One of the coolest things I’ve seen so far is that all of the tutorials are managed by MediaWiki and are completely globally editable! No more out-datedness! Nice work. Hoping to see […]
Take the A List Apart Web Design Survey, 2007.
I’m headed to SXSWi for the next week. If any of my wonderful readers (all four of you) are going to be there and would like to hook up, shoot me an e-mail. Of course, there is a fairly full slate of meet-ups, parties, panels, and bowling scheduled. But who knows, we might be in […]
