I have a couple bigger projects cooking, but I'm in the early stages of writing a new little ebook, designed to be distributed through my blog.

My aim is to help readers build a positive working relationship with the Bible -- a key step in becoming fluent in basic Christianity. Every Christian needs that for confident and effective discipleship.

Here's a basic picture of where I'm going:
1. The book assumes zero current Bible knowledge.
2. It aims toward lifelong spiritual engagement (i.e. not just academic study or transfer of "Bible basics" facts.)
2. It will draw on great role-models from the Christian past -- because that is what I do.

(I'm also currently running a title brainstorm on Facebook and on my blog. I'd love your help! If I pick your suggestion you'll get a free copy, though that is a bit down the line...)(less)

Shakespeare’s “The Winter’s Tale”

The Winter's Tale

The Winter's Tale Cast Photo, The Winter’s Tale (STAR)

If you are anywhere near the Southern Tier of New York State the last weekend of January, I hope you’ll stop by the Phelps Mansion Museum (191 Court Street, Binghamton). You can get out of the cold and see some great entertainment: S.T.A.R. (that’s “Southern Tier Actors Read”) is presenting a partly-staged reading of Shakespeare’s “The Winter’s Tale.”

Quotes by Gary Neal Hansen  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“Forgiveness is not pretending that no harm has been done—that is denial. Nor does it mean the painful feelings all melt away—that is healing, which may come much later. Forgiveness is when you have been harmed, but you actively, prayerfully lift the sentence and decide not to exercise your right to prosecute or avenge.”
Gary Neal Hansen, Kneeling with Giants: Learning to Pray with History's Best Teachers
