Mirificam Press Web Design Study Path
The Mirificam Press study path is a collection of mini web design courses covering a wide range of technical and worldview topics. Every few months a new course is added to the study path and the "study path mode" design is revamped to reflect the focus of the current course. Visitors interested in following the Mirificam Press study path have the option of switching the site to study path mode by clicking the button at the top of the page.

International Arts Movement
The International Arts Movement is an organization set on engaging culture with a Chrisitan Worldview. I encourage all Christian web designers to join the IAM in it's quest to "...empower the growth of artists in the refinement of their gifts, in the fullness of what God intended for them." IAM has the right idea, encouraging Christians to be the best artists in every culture, and bringing Christainity back to embrace the arts.
