I am honored to report that I have contributed to a devotional project. In The Beloved Disciple: A Prayerful Reading of The Gospel of John, Volume I, I contribute two entries: Day 11 and Day 23. You can bee the project here: https://www.csmedia1.com/downtown.newvalleychurch.org/beloved-devo-digital-1.pdf

I contributed to Volume II as well, which is not yet released. I will update when that one is published!

I have been writing state albums, but it has always been my desire to include all American citizens, regardless of their state, commonwealth, or minor outlying territory status. This, the first of my Albums: Guam. (Calling these Albums bereft of American or state status is awkward; calling them “Holdings” albums seems worse. I think no modifier seems the kindest of the possibilities, given the diversity of opinions on the matter of status.)
