A Picture is Worth a Thousand Words


As I've shared in the past, I am not persuaded that Islam is the religion of peace it purports to be.  In just recent weeks, we have seen radicalized individuals decapitating a soldier on the streets of London, the Boston Marathon bombing, and worldwide persecution of Christians (and other non-Muslims) in barbaric countries such as Iran.  The Islamization of Europe is well on its way, and I suggest the West would be wise to wake up and stop cowering in fear behind political correctness.  It's time to call it what it is.

What I Learned from Samwise, My Interview with Sean Astin FREE on Kindle (May 24th-May 27th)

I am excited to announce that my latest e-book, What I Learned from Samwise, My Interview with Sean Astin is scheduled to be available for free between May 24th and May 27th.  I hope you can check it out!


You may recognize Sean Astin first as that brave hobbit, Samwise Gamgee, from Peter Jackson's motion picture The Lord of the Rings, but there is a lot more to Sean than this brilliantly played role. This is a man for whom theater runs in his blood--hard to avoid when Patty Duke is your mother!

This e-book features my wide-ranging interview of Sean Astin from 2011. The interview touches on everything from his role as Sam and spiritual reflections to his thoughts on the much loved children's book he and his wife hope to bring to the big screen soon. (Lois Lowry's Number the Stars)

It also contains a review of Sean Astin's impressive book, "There and Back Again," as well as a short essay on Sean's newest project known as #Run3rd. What does he hope to accomplish with his newest endeavor?

The e-book concludes with a variety of links which may be helpful to the reader in learning more about this great actor/director.
