Three Year Anniversary of the Publication of The Cup and the Glory


Today, March 2, 2009, is the 3-year anniversary of the publication of The Cup and the Glory. So much has happened in these three years: translations, webpage, Libronix/LOGOS, Shepherd's Conference--and on it goes. An incredible three years, blessed by the Lord with much fruit.

I have been so busy getting The Darkness and the Glory out along with the soon-to-be-released study guide, and doing the final editing of The Stone and the Glory, that I had not been in any portion of The Cup and the Glory for a couple of years. After I finished my work this morning, I went back and read "The Wilderness" and most of "The Cup." It was like being with old friends. I also went to the study guide and read "The Writing of The Cup and the Glory." Even though I had written these, I had forgotten a lot of the details about each chapter. I also went back and read the interview with my wife Betsy (that is in the study guide). In many ways it seems like 10 years or more since these were published.

All-in-all it was just a time of thankfulness and praise; kind of a quick look back at the 3-year marker. Hopefully God will continue to bless and bring the divine appointments that He would have. 

To God be the Glory!
