Bob Hoover

While my brother and I were at the new Air and Space Museum (see posting from earlier this week) our tour guide ended by telling about this plane, flown by Bob Hoover, who would have been the first man to break the sound barrier if Chuck Yeager had fessed up to his injury. The guide said Hoover woul...

Immigrants Hear God's Word, In Chinese, by Conference Call

I've had a heart for reaching Chinese people since I ran a race in Guangzhou or Canton, China, in high school. This New York Times article was SO encouraging to me: Immigrants Hear God's Word, In Chinese, by Conference Call. You can read it all for free until (I believe) Sunday.

Jim Hudson Taylor follow-up

In February I performed Beyond the Chariots in Hong Kong. After the performance several of us were kicking ourselves that Jim Taylor didn't say something about his experience in the concentration camp with Eric Liddell as a boy. We wished we could have used his talk to drive the message of the play...

Eric Liddell's morning devotions

In Pittsburg I was thrilled to have an audience member request a copy of the prayer I led people to pray after Beyond the Chariots if they wanted to invite the Lord into their lives. I sent him to the link on the right side of RichDrama.com called "My Passion" after telling the person the...

Can I go to China with you?

I've been performing and teaching in Pittsburgh in what has been a very exciting week!
