Sunday Faith Blog.....and an extra gift to you all from BZ

"Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." Philippians 4:4-7

Have a wonderful Sunday, everyone.........I hope you find the above verses as affirming and calming as I do.

-I just read Bloviating Zeppelin's latest post "A Letter to My Father, from His". Please go there and read it. I promise you will not be sorry, you will be inspired and you will remember what America's really about. As Law & Order Teacher commented there..."This is America." Read "America", folks.....it rarely gets better than this. Thank you, BZ, for having shared such a wonderful part of your very American family with us.

MAIL FOR MIKEY...Orson Bean's new book

Just one more plug for my friend Orson Bean's new book, MAIL FOR MIKEY.... It would be such a good Christmas gift. The Christianity focus is making it a problem for many book chains and they're not carrying it like they might. Imagine? They're not carrying a book by ORSON BEAN, one of THE best RACONTEURS and story tellers around (yes, I know you all know what a raconteur is but I had to look up the spelling so I figured I'd link while I was there, just in case!). You can get it through Amazon.com (linked above) (the book, not reconteurship, more's the pity!)

Orson was on Dennis Miller recently and Dennis wants him on as a monthly guest...the first guest he's done this with. Michael Medved also had him on the other day. Orson is a terrific guy and his book is PERFECT for those on the fence of faith...who think they're TOO HIP for belief! And it's a great confirmation for those of us already there...

Any of you have connections with Christian Radio Station/interviewers, etc.? I love Orson and his wife Alley Mills Bean (you recognize her in that picture if you ever watched THE WONDER YEARS, she was the MOM!), and more people should hear about this book! Let me know. Obviously, with a man with Orson's celebrity, it's not sales proceeds he's after, it's more desire to inspire people.... so I'd like to see him do more interviews.

I'm hoping you'll all get to hear Orson somewhere....... it's a good book, he's a great interview on any subject, and he's a man of real solid convictions in faith and politics. Just thought I'd remind you since I did post on this in October! Let me know if you know any radio station people. Thanks!
