A Joyful Conclusion
Goshen College welcomed us for our final stop in the Everything Must Change Tour ... I was so impressed, once again, by the school's administrators, faculty, and students, as they live out their five core values:
Christ-centered
passionate learning
global citizenship
servant leadership
compassionate peacemaking.
Someone told me that Goshen is considered a well-kept secret. I hope you'll join me in spreading the word about this extraordinary learning community, whose values resonate so strongly with the themes of our tour.
The time at Goshen was pure joy, but I must admit our DeepShift team felt a lot of mixed emotions as we packed up to leave and for the first time in eleven weeks couldn't say, "See you next weekend!" We've enjoyed such a tremendous working relationship over the past year, planning and presenting the tour and meeting amazing people around the country. We have a number of invitations to launch a second leg of the tour, which we'll prayerfully consider in the coming weeks. Until then, Linnea, Tracy, Eric, and Jo - along with our hosts, sponsors, and other collaborators, you have been wonderful beyond words to work with! Thanks be to God for the joy of partnership in a worthy cause with splendid people like you!
This week Grace and I will be preparing for our departure this weekend for Africa ... never a dull moment!

Finding Our Way Again
Publishers Weekly offers this first review of my newest book, Finding Our Way Again. Relevant Magazine also has this review.
This book was a pleasure to write, and I hope it will be of help to a wide range of readers.
The foreword by Phyllis Tickle was inadvertently left out of the first printing. Here is a pdf you can download:

Goshen, Article, Music
I leave in a few minutes for our last tour stop in Goshen, Indiana. It's not too late to join us - and Goshen isn't far from major midwest cities ...
One of the truly interesting and good-hearted people I have gotten to know in recent years is Lynne Hybels. She is a gifted writer and has an important voice in the integration of faith and justice - and art. Check out her recent article here.
In the article you'll find links to the good work of my friends at La Red del Camino and The Work of the People.
And here's a link to the song by Aaron Niequist that Lynne refers to in her article.

what i’m listening to
I've been listening to Don Chaffer's CD "What You Don't Know" almost constantly for the last couple days.
And Rev. Vince Anderson's "100% Jesus."
Great music.
