My New Book & Documentary Are Now Available!

An Epic Timeline

Today’s the day — release day for my new book and 10-episode travel documentary! Epic: An Around-the-World Journey through Christian History is both a book and a documentary series that charts my journey around the world and through the ages. Touching more than 20 countries across 6 continents, you can travel the world with me to see the great big story God has been telling over the past 2,000 years.

My teenaged girls may be moderately biased, but they said this: “It’s good, daddy. It makes history interesting and uncomplicated.” And, as it happens, that is exactly what I had hoped to accomplish. This is not just history told for the sake of those who love history, but also for those who don’t! The book is beautifully-illustrated and full of photographs; the documentary captures footage of some of the most interesting and stunning locations in the world. The two products are complementary—neither one depends on the other, so you’ll get a great experience whether you choose to get one or both.

    Spread Too Thin

    With so much to do, we can easily begin to wonder whether prayer is an appropriate use of scarce time. Wouldn’t it be better to give my attention to something that would let me cross something off my to-do list?

    Thriving Marriage

    I have often wondered about the best time to write a book about marriage. When a couple is young, there is so much about marriage they have not yet experienced. They can still impart wisdom and teach lessons, of course, but there is so much of marriage that remains unknown to them. Yet when a…
