I’m taking a sabbatical from writing “Reflections” for several months until my arms heal from a rotator cuff injury. I injured the left arm from weight lifting (don’t know why, I’ve been doing the same routine for 10 years) and then the right arm from overuse. I will Tweet as I am able, and will let you know how the healing goes and what my plans for writing will be.

The other issue is that our film, “Raw Faith,” has been picked up by a distributor, Kino Lorber, and they are laying out plans for film festivals and theatrical screenings all over the country, some of which I will attend. So my travel schedule is beginning to heat up, and I make a habit of not hauling around a computer with me when I am out of town. I take this time to read and to think and to rest.

In the works at the present moment is a new book, to be published by my own press, Fuller Press, within the next three or four months. It will be called “A Little Book of Reflections” and will be composed of quotations from sermons. I will let you know when it is available.

My “retirement” has hardly been a leavetaking from my work, but rather a refocusing of it. The film has moved into first place, as it seems to be garnering more and more attention. It is my hope that it will prove helpful to others–really, a kind of extension of my ministry. As always, I ask the question, “What next?” I’m available to my call, in whatever way I might be most useful.
