I'm currently working on a series of books called Spiritual Musings. Some of you may remember that I did something crazy in mid-2018 — pedaling a bicycle 4,320 miles across the country, and camping along the way. It took 90 days to accomplish, and during that time the Lord gave me a handful of powerful devotions that are contained in an eBook, Spiritual Musings from the Saddle of a Bicycle. I hope you’ll read it, and am sure you’ll be blessed by it.
While this was the first collection of articles (devotions in this case), there are more in various stages of preparation. One is entitled Spiritual Musings from the Margins of a Bible. In it, I’ve included hundreds of snippets I’ve written in the margins of the Bible I’ve owned since 1981 — impactful words I’ve heard from the pulpit, Sunday School, and even some from the Lord in prayer. Needing proper formatting and layout, it should be available as an eBook soon.
I’m also working on a difficult series of articles entitled Spiritual Musings from the Headlines of a Newspaper. These comprise what I subtitle A Spiritual Toolbox for Christians Navigating a Culture of Lies. Each article is intended to be used to gently confront the lies of the enemy in the hot-button issues, e.g., gender identity, sanctity of life, skin color, and more topics that divide us as a culture and draw us away from God’s clear teachings. I start each one with a ludicrous story that no one would believe -- that is, until they realize they are believing the very same thing about themselves. The intent is for these pieces to serve as a logical challenge to various ungodly worldviews. I plan to share an example of one of these pieces in my February newsletter.
Finally, here’s some exciting news — I’ve been invited to read from Defined by Fire during the Word Weavers* Open Mic night Tuesday February 6th beginning at 5:00 PM MST. One doesn’t have to belong to Word Weavers to watch and listen on Zoom – these are open to the public. If you’re able, I’d love for you to join me by pre-registering for the event at:
