Been Memorizing Lately?
Study the Commands of Christ with Us!
- Emily Schuurmans
- I am the fourth of six home-schooled children, blessed with parents who fear God and love each other. I have had the opportunity to serve for some time in Chicago, IL, as a graphic artist with IBLP. Since then, I have hosted Scripture memory challenges for girls in my area, interned with Bright Lights (a discipleship ministry for young women), and am currently living at home, serving my family and local church, and funding many interests by working as a legal secretary for an attorney. I love to travel, make music, witness, cook, put some energy into sports and outdoor activities, take pictures and study the Bible. I love hard work and will learn just about anything! I am humbled at the many ways I fall short of what I ought to be, but as John Newton said, "I am not what I ought to be, I am not what I want to be, I am not what I hope to be in another world; but still I am not what I once used to be, and by the grace of God I am what I am." Soli Deo gloria!
What's with the photography?
Part of my life purpose is to emulate Jesus Christ as much as I can in all that I do, and photography is just one facet I strive to honor Him with quality, perspective, and creativity. I want the work of my hands and the meditations of my heart to be captive to the will of my Lord and Savior that I might live in the freedom and power that obeying provides!

gorgeous pics Emily!
Next time I think you should just a few more Pictures :D Nice stuff! #5 my fav!
Hi Emily! I just found your blog a few days ago and I just love it! I love photography as well and was simply delighted to find a blog that combined both photography and scripture! I also have a blog hosted by blogspot and was wondering how you designed the header that switches pictures? I would really like to make one for my blog but I'm not sure how :)
In Christ Jesus,
Sarah M.
Hi Sarah, glad you found ETC! I could explain how to make a rotating header, or I could simply direct you to someone who already has . . . I'll choose the second option. :) Check this link out: http://makincuteblogs.com/2011/01/make-a-simple-rotating-header-in-photoshop/ Hope that helps!
