I attended Bel Air Presbyterian Church, near Santa Monica, CA. This morning they welcomed 15 teens into membership in the church, and four of them were baptised. The theme of the day was "Flipp'd", based on Acts 17:6, which refers to how followers of Christ were turning the world upside do...

Pulled away from the gate

By Rich

It already pulled away from the gate. Thankfully they already had me booked on the next flight. Now I have five hours to experience Denver. Well, at least their airport.

Late flights at LGA

By Rich

They're down to a single working runway at LaGuardia Airport, so I'm landing in Denver minutes before my flight for Ontario, CA, is due to take off. And I thought I wouldn't get a workout in today!

I'm heading west for the Christians in Theatre Arts National Conf ( http:CITA.ORG )

Last time I spri...

A miraculous view!

By Rich

For all ten years of our marriage Joyce and I have been on the waiting list to reside at Manhattan Plaza, which offers subsidized housing to those who make over half of their income in the performing arts. About a month ago we got a rejection letter because we make too much money. Because Joyce is i...

We found a great translation

By Rich

We've found a wonderful translation of Tartuffe by Donald M. Frame for the MasterWorks Festival.

Another drafts folder

By Rich

I found another folder of drafts I'd started but never posted. The next three posts are from trips in January and February.

This one was from our planning session for MasterWorks, which starts in three weeks! I understand Winona Lake, IN, is now looking much more like the summer haven we all love!

So much for warming up down South

From my trip to Atlanta in March. I was hoping to, well, warm up.

The Year of Living Biblically

By Rich

Joyce enjoyed, and I'm still enjoying, The Year of Living Biblically by AJ Jacobs.

So I was glad to see a condensed version in Relevant Magazine: My Biblical Year.

The Miraculous Surgery

By Rich

On May 17 my wife, Joyce, was a part of a prayer team praying for her sister, Amy, who was going to have a brain tumor removed on May 20. The doctors had told her that part of the tumor was wrapped around nerves that control swallowing, so they were going to leave that part of the tumor and treat i...

Holy fire

By Rich

I found several blog posts that I'd started on my Treo and never sent, so all the posts today are from various times and places.

This statue is near Mt. Shasta in northern California. I took it on the way to perform at the church that was pastored by Mike Yakonelli before his untimely death. His ...

Allow God to Love You

By Rich

From our trip to Guatemala last year...
Mark Yaconelli, who ran against me in high school cross country and track we realized, is closing strong. He's sending us forth not as artists and speakers, but as spiritual leaders. His greatest assignment to us is to wait upon the Lord. He said, "Can...

Rain of Grace

By Rich

This church has been called Llevias de Gracias (Rain of Grace) for 26 years. Last year Compassion put in a water filtration system that allows them to sell bottled water to the community. They sell it at such a low price that everyone in the community can afford it. It's a great way to share God's l...

They're doing it again!

By Rich

Every time I've seen people share from the depths of their souls I've seen God work at deeper levels. Chris Davey, one of the faculty shared that he was a homeless drunk who wandered into a Salvation Army rehab center just to get off the streets. He didn't want to have anything to do with the Gospel...

Dad's TBM

By Rich

From last year...
We were just at the Evergreen museum that hosts Howard Hughes' Spruce Goose (though he preferred to call it the Flying Boat). It's in McMinnville, Oregon, home of the News-Register, the paper for which I was a correspondent and photographer while I was in college.

One of the planes...

CITA National

By Rich

I came across this draft from last summer's Christians in Theatre Arts Conference, and since this year's is rapidly approaching I thought I'd post it...

There was just a dance that blew me away. Most near me were sobbing by the end of it. Not a word spoken, but it was a profound exploration of marri...
