I remember, about two months ago, when we put an announcement about Luke Miller's birth in the bulletin for Sunday. And next to the announcement, we put a picture of a baby. It wasn't the real Luke Miller. I think most of you know by now that I was a photographer in a previous life, and as a photographer, I don't have much respect for clip art. Clip art works because it's generic, because it's meant to tell far less than the truth, because you're supposed to be able to swap it in and out of a hundred different stories.
Clip art is supposed to be one size fits all.
Always any waterfall, never Niagara Falls. Always any coastline, never California. Always any baby, never Luke Miller. As a photographer I don't have any respect for clip art, but as a pastor, I find it useful. Throw down a clip art picture of a bunch of people talking at a table.
