Telling Secrets: Three things

Three things

1. I tend to like parties, but four Christmas parties in one week is enough. I'm done until the 24th.

2. Last night someone handed me a $1000 check for my ministry. The second time it's happened this week. How cool is that?

(To put this in context: as of two weeks ago my ministry account was >4k in the red. That's because - to my dismay - my agency pays full salary and benefits even when the money is not there. The IRS likes it that way. I don't. But there's light at the end of the tunnel now: Yay for year-end gifts!)

3. Off to brave the crowds and get my Christmas shopping done today, I hope. And catch up on thank-you notes this evening. In between, going to see The Voyage of the Dawn Treader with some friends. Fun!

When Everything is Missions

No author credit on this one, but it already had two authors (and they needed an editor). So though I put in 120 hours on the project, I decided it was best to just bury my name in the acknowledgements. Did the same thing a few years ago with "God's Heart for the Nations." Soft launch of WEIM was October 2017, with a more complete release in January 2018. Update: By mid-2019 10,000 copies had been distributed (about half given away for free, since this was always meant as more an awareness-raising venture than a money-making one). A sequel of sorts will come out in 2020.
