I've actually visited every state but North Dakota, however, after leading some Graceworks ( http://GraceworksInc.com) workshops in Arkansas this week, that will make it the 36th state in which I've either performed, directed or taught.

This is a great opportunity for those of you MySpacers to help Compassion...

Growing up I wanted to be a pilot. As I've performed my plays around the world I've been able to do enough flying to fulfill that desire. For more shots from the air, visit RichDrama.com/Air.

Jesse, who attends our church, Westchester Chapel, asked for some input on a paper and presentation he did for his whole school on Eric Liddell. He was in a wax museum lineup along with FDR and the like. It sounds like he held his own.

MasterWorks alum, Kris Becker stopped by while he's here in NYC for the Young Concert Artists' international auditions. He's gone through two rounds and is waiting to hear back about the next. His music is available at KrisBeckerMusic.com

When I first moved to New York City at the age of 23 I was quite overwhelmed. One of the first things I did was visit my relatives in New Jersey. I had met them when I was in third grade on a cross-country trip our family took. A dozen years later my relatives welcomed me with ope...

I was told not to miss The 39 Steps when I was in London, and how glad I was that I didn't! How glad I am for my friends in New York that it's moved to Broadway. The New York Times loved it just as much as I did: Spies, Blonde and a Guy Go North by Northwest.

Our friend Melanie Jeschke, author of The Oxford Chronicles, sent an invitation to Oxbridge, a conference held on the campuses of Oxford and Cambridge, which is sponsored by the CS Lewis Foundation.

Retta Blaney invited me to perform an excerpt of Beyond the Chariots at Broadway Blessing, an event she organizes each year to bless the city through the theatre community. This year the event will take place on September 8 at The Cathedral of St. John the Divine. Watch RichDrama.com/Itinerary for t...

I just got off the phone with my friend Brent Grosvenor (pictured here, playing Billy Sunday). He was wanting me to recommend someone for a role in The Passion of the King, a play he's directing this spring.

He mentioned that he had run into Boyd Owen, who played John Proctor in The Crucible last su...

As I was considering what Bible reading plan to use in '08 I was reminded that Eric Liddell developed a plan in his book The Disciplines of the Christian Life:

Eric Liddell's Scripture List.

It won't get you through the whole Bible in a year, but it looks like the seedbed for some good d...

Joyce and I just enjoyed The Water Horse. The film was highly touted during the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in August. It didn't disappoint as a breathtaking look at Scotland's Highlands, but it was much more than just the beautiful scenery, as one of the characters notes. It's about a young boy learn...

The globes above Regent Street in London, which light up based on the noise rising from the street, are mirrored this Christmas in one of the patterns in Grand Central Station's show.

Our church ( http://WestchesterChapel.org) had a beautiful candle-light service for Christmas Eve. Our own Mike and Maria Hood, founders of Psalm 96 Band ( http://Psalm96.org) led us in some beautiful Christmas carols.

This was taken just before dawn.
