Back from Navajo
You come back from a Mission trip with all sorts things going through your head. How you’re going to change, what you’re going to change, things you can do, things you should’ve done, going back next year, etc. I kept waiting for this great ephipany of a blog post to write and share….I’m still waiting. It’s hard to even know where to begin but I feel I need to start writing to get the process going. First off I want to thank each of you, those that prayed, those that gave, those that followed along, it took each of you for this trip to happen and for it to be a success. There are many things about the trip I’d like to share but right now I there is something more important to share. Keith Martin, our Worship Arts pastor, is the leader of the Navajo trip. He’s been dealing with back pain for quite awhile and it got progressively worse on the trip to the point he ended up coming home early to have it taken care of. It comes to find they have found a mass in his abdomen. All that to say, please keep up with his status and pray for him, find out his latest at http://www.gowoodland.com/keith
Wasabi Gospel
Wasabi Gospel
Finished reading Wasabi Gospel, Shawn Wood’s second book, and it was I believe even better than the first. Shawn’s first book had me at the title alone, 200 Pomegranates and an Audience of One: Creating a Life of Meaning and Influence. I just have to say if Shawn keeps titling his books about food I’m probably going to have to read them all. Luckily there’s a sushi place just down the road I can head to real quick everytime I see the cover of Wasabi Gospel. Shawn’s writing style drew me into 200P/A1 and made me want to get Wasabi Gospel as soon as I could. It’s like sitting with that close friend that doesn’t have to sugar coat everything but you love them for saying what you don’t want to hear. Shawn takes those statements from the Gospels and challenges us to live them and not just walk around them. In the same way you’ll never truly appreciate wasabi unless you take a big bite you’ll not completely the truths Jesus longs for our life unless we live them out. The challenge of not just loving your friends and the enemies you don’t have to worry about but loving the enemies that challenge and threaten you, your family, and all that matter to you. The Wasabi Gospel is a book you’ll love even if it challenges you in ways and in things you didn’t think it would. Want some more info on the book or Shawn? Check out:

I just want to open by saying, “Wow” – I am amazed at the response I have gotten to be involved. All I can say is that I am honored. Because of the response I am going to break the tour up into two “bites”. You are a part of BITE ONE! Bite one will be on July 8th (which is a WEDNESDAY) with a post around 9am your time to coincide with the Amazon Book Bomb. Here is a link to the full digital copy of the book. Please do not share this link with anyone else. http://issuu.com/abingdonpress/docs/wasabi_gospel Your blog belongs to you and I am an invited guest , so you can review the book anyway you would like, but here are a few suggestions: 1. You can review the whole book – or even better pick your favorite chapter and review it. This may help too if you don’t get a chance to read the whole book before July 8th. 2. Please Mention early on in the post that July 8th is also the Book Bomb on Amazon.com and link to the page to buy the book… here is a link that you can use http://www.amazon.com/gp/entity/-/B001JSAWAU 4. You can include this 411 if you want: www.twitter.com/shawnwood 6. And finally if you are able to buy a book on July 8th to support the book bomb (which I would greatly appreciate) please give your free copy away to someone who does not know Jesus but is exploring! I will pray that the free copies make into the hands that will set someone else free! Thanks so much everyone and if you have any questions please let me know! Please send me the permalink to your post and I will make sure and link to it from my blog on July 8th! Carve pomegranates with your life, Shawn

Thanks, Derek.
As soon as the books arrive in our warehouse we’ll be shipping them out! Hopefully within a couple of weeks.
