My Book: WANTING MORE (sneak peak)
I am happy to share the front & back cover of my book, Wanting More, with you. Thanks to my good friend, Sky Dimond, for his hard work in getting this done. I am very glad to be here in Malaysia getting this printed. For some of you who are not aware, this has been a project that has been in the works for several years. It is wonderful to see the light at the end of the tunnel. After talking to several publishers, I have decided to self publish for several reasons. The main is that there will be potentially more proceeds go towards our mission. Further, as a matter of not putting more money into the million dollar bank accounts of the profit-driven Chrisitan publishing world will me make sleep better at night. Order information coming soon- Probably be ready to order by April 1 (hopefully) I am hoping that my friends and readers of my blog (that would be you) would help get the word out to your churches, friends, and family to buy the book. We are really going to be pushing the book as a great book to do with your small group for discussion on issues of justice, service, simplicity, prayer, compassion.. Stay tuned
Let me know if Bean Books can be of any help.

Congratulations on your new book! In case you don't remember me, I first met you at Sivin's place during the Emergent Christmas party.
Will be anxiously twiddling my fingers here for the order date and will be sure to let our church congregation in on once the date is in. Still keeping you, Elise, Zayd and tthe little one in my prayers...
