Mr. Dan Ondra knows what it takes to troupe a large, traveling, gospel variety show (and has the bad back to prove it). But even though the semi-load of equipment & props have been retired, one thing has remained the same - Dan's eagerness to assist chalkers everywhere and help their ministries flourish. As he often says: "There's no competition here - we're all on the same team." Dan is one of the most selfless chalk artists I know and has been a personal blessing to me.
Dan is not just a veteran chalk artist. His resume also includes being a teacher, author, magician, designer, inventor...well, too much to list here. Did I also mention that he is generous?
Over a century ago, Sam Loyd designed one of the most popular and magical puzzles ever created—more than ten million copies were produced! This genuine puzzle masterpiece is called “Get Off the Earth” and features a posse of sword-wielding Chinese warriors. I was inspired to re-imagine Sam’s puzzle with an added gospel flavor and had been tinkering around with this for over a year. Then, one day, my daughter Christy suggested using clowns. Viola! Finally, my version called “How Many Clowns?” is ready for release.

This picture shows how I have adapted the puzzle into a simple tract for children which they can cut out and assemble. Part of the copy reads:
How many clowns can you find? Point the cross toward clown A and you will find 12. But one is lost! Sharing the Gospel is as simple as pointing the cross toward clown B. Count again. Now there are 13! The lost has been found!
Every soul is a circus, And every life is a tent. So be a fool for Jesus, And smile wherever you're sent!
For God will use the foolish. Yes, reach out and clown around. Use all your gifts for Jesus, Seek and the lost shall be found!
Feel free to distribute this puzzle as a gospel tract or use it as a give-away at your programs.
Have you ever had an epiphany moment in life? Our guest for this episode, Mr. Gary Means once provided such a moment for me in 1996 when I attended one of his chalk art conferences. What I experienced there changed my life forever so it seems only fitting that Gary should be my first guest on Chalked & Amazed! With over 50 years of chalking experience he is well qualified as a teacher of chalk art - and a great presenter (and friend) as well.
