I was blessed to have had the opportunity
to see biographer Joseph Pearce recently,
at a talk given by the C. S. Lewis Society…

I missed hearing Dr. Pearce speak, but was
delighted to have the chance to speak with
him. After having to miss seeing him and
Dale Ahlquist last year at a local chapter of
the G. K. Chesterton Society’s Chesterton
conference, I was thrilled and thankful to
be able to attend.

It was a whole lotta fun, and now I have
a bunch more books to add to my wish list!

from Ignatius Press…

Dear and Glorious Physician,
by Taylor Caldwell -

H/T: Mom:-)

Growing up, this book, (one
of my mother’s favorites) – about
St. Luke, was practically required
reading.

It has been out-of-print for a while
now, so it’s great to see Ignatius Press
making it available again.

An Amazon Review

rhapsody — Sat, 17 May 2008 18:44:39 +0000

I wrote (& rewrote!) is up for a new
book of poetry:

Divining Divinity, By Joseph Pearce,

and illustrated by

Jef Murray, whose work can be seen
at his site, Mystical Realms.

Omigoodness, I can’t believe how
many times I edited it (add a word
here, a comma there – sheesh! writing
isn’t easy!)…

Well, poor writing skills aside, I
wanted to like this book, and do
indeed. It is what I expected in
its subject and to some degree, in
its substance, although at times
the pictures it evokes are startling –
especially since one can tell the
person behind the pen is writing
from the vantage point of God’s
grip.

Very well done, Gentlemen!
