1000 Words: Bansky.
by Chris Kamalski
Walking along Portobello Road Farmer’s Market (London) in late January, I stumbled across a graffiti artist known as Bansky. He stencils drawings into public places, using existing graffiti to enhance a picture’s beauty.
I think these photos are stunning. And their creation makes an interesting point about our role within the Kingdom of God.
How are we called towards involvement in transforming something that once was broken, ugly, or dismissed into something beautifully complex and new again?
Incredible. These are absolutely incredible. Sure makes ya think about the beauty of God, doesn’t it? He is so good. God, indeed, is so good.

The CRM office is always good for a new book for me each time I visit 🙂
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and if we look for beauty everywhere, people places things, then there is nothing to worry about.
I always remember the Americans seeing the beauty of their national bird picking things out of our local dump.
