CAA: Christian Anime Alliance

Okay, for all you wonderful artists out there I have a challenge/proposition for you to design some wallpaper.

I help lead a youth group and our church is about to run through a campaign called '40 Days of Purpose' (based on the book 'The Purpose Driven Life'). It will run for six weeks and so we're going to be putting on six special youth services.

Thinking about how we can make things different and a bit more exciting it occurred to me it would be cool to redecorate a little. How? Well, there's a website which offers a rasterization of images - in other words, it blows them up into huge proportions - even up to 20ft etc. I was thinking it would be great to have some Christian themed anime images, which could be blown up and hung around the place.

So, whilst some of you have already done some great work, I wouldn't feel right just downloading those without permission. What's more, I thought maybe if I threw out the themes for the weeks you could create something along those lines.

I don't know, maybe I'm asking a lot but I thought I'd put it out there.

I'd appreciate any input I can get from you guys.

The themes are:

Pre - Don't Waste Your Life-Pre-Campaign Message

1 - What on Earth am I here for? (Which will be about finding God's purpose for your life, your identity etc.)

2 - You Were Planned for God's Pleasure -Worship

3 - You Were Formed for God's Family - Fellowship

4 - You Were Created to Become Like Christ - Discipleship

5 - You Were Shaped for Serving God - Ministry

6 - You Were Made for a Mission - Evangelism

Plus any other generally cool Christian stuff.

I can't offer payment, but I'd be happy to stick up an acknowledgment with the artwork and send you some pics of the large images on display. Or perhaps any other requests you might have.

Anyway, there it is, so, what do you think?

Oh and the campaign starts in about 3 weeks!

And you know what, maybe I could arrange some sort of prizes or something for those whose work is used. Not sure what would be wanted or suitable.

No interest then?

I'm interested...PM me.I'll do what I can. ^_^

My church is doing the same thing as well...though alot of people (well just about half a handful) doesnt like the idea...

Any specific reasons?

And anything special that's going to be happening?

What do you think?


To everyone:

Bakura is having a go - was wondering if anyone else wanted to give it a shot?

Well...I've got 2 done. Identity and Ministry. I sent them to Galant allready to approve.

I can try! I did this at my school last year so I am familiar with the book and themes.
I would love to try though! ^^'

Go ahead!

sounds cool, I guess I'll try, if there's anything specific that you want in one then PM me ^_^

Our church did that book a while ago, too. I wish I could help, but I can't really draw anime style very well. I'll pray that it works out, though.

If you end up giving it a shot then PM me and I'll send you my email address, or I suppose you could post them somewhere on here!

EDIT:

Okay, so here's the update - I have a request for art including the following verses:

Ephesians 2
10For we are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.

Mark 12
30Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.'

Romans 12
5so in Christ we who are many form one body, and each member belongs to all the others.

Philippians 2
5Your attitude should be the same as that of Christ Jesus:

1 Peter 4
10Each one should use whatever gift he has received to serve others, faithfully administering God's grace in its various forms.

Colossians 4
5Be wise in the way you act toward outsiders; make the most of every opportunity.


Again, the idea is to enlarge the images into big posters/banners to be put up all over the place in our youth areas for the 40 Days of Purpose campaign at our church. Any assistance appreciated!

Bumped for edit/update.

I'd be interested.

Okay, I've managed to get quite a few images - many thanks to Ink, Ann, Lisa and a few others. However, I turns out I have many female images and not too many male ones. So right now I'm asking for help in finding Christian themed anime/manga images with male subjects. If anyone has or knows of any let me know and I'll see if I can't get the appropriate permission for use. Thanks.
