I just got to work with a great bunch of leaders of the Salvation Army at a camp outside of Jacksonville, FL.

Besides teaching them acting skills and giving them a run-down on various forms, I helped them develop a script on Saturday that we performed on Sunday!

Great job, guys!

I was at the play on Tuesday, the 6th anniversary of 9/11. I couldn't even talk about it afterward because I was still "contemplating" it all. I was not as "teary-eyed" as I thought I would be, but I was deeply affected by the stories of hope. It was an amazing performance by Ric...

I took a jog part way up Arthur's Seat, where the scene in Chariots of Fire is filmed: "God made me for a purpose: for China. But He also made me fast. And when I run I feel his pleasure." At the last performance we had an opera singer who attended the show that said the film, and in parti...

We were able to take a tour of the Queen's official residence in Scotland, because she's at Balmorral, only a few miles from the farm house where we stayed for our St. Andrews get-away.

Holyrood means holy cross. The palace got its name because the chapel held a relic, which was said to be part of t...

Theses are Eric Liddell's three Olympic medals: gold for the 400m, bronze for the 200m in which he was within a second of both Jackson Scholz and Charles Paddock, and a medal for participation. His daughter, Patricia, donated them to The University of Edinburgh.

One of the huge obstacles in bringing Beyond the Chariots to the Fringe was housing. The city of Edinburgh swells to up to six times its normal population as the Fringe, International Festival, Book Festival and Film Festival all take place simultaneously. Our friend Chuck put us in touch with Brian...
