I'm excited to share with you a new project I'm working on.

You know how sometimes a story sticks with you long after you've read it? That's what happened when Arif first read "Journey in Grace" by David Sterling.

This book tells the story of David's life - how ordinary moments turned into extraordinary spiritual lessons, how he met remarkable teachers across continents, and how he discovered God's help showing up in unexpected ways.

His stories show us what it means to trust in divine guidance, even when things seem impossible.

After Arif shared the book with several friends, we managed to connect with David through a mutual friend. This led to David coming to Bangalore for a book launch.

While chatting about Sufi Comics over coffee, an idea sparked - what if we could share these beautiful stories through comics?

Why comics?

Well, there's something magical about seeing a story unfold through pictures. It helps us pause at those key moments and really feel what the characters are going through. Plus, it opens these wonderful teachings to readers who might not pick up a traditional spiritual book.

The art will be done by award winning artist Charbak Dipta. He’s also illustrated 40 Sufi Comics - Volume 3.

Here are some illustrations of the character designs for the book.

As we make progress, I look forward to sharing with you stories from the book in comic form.
