Update: Taliban Agrees to Release Hostages
As an update to my earlier post asking for prayer, I wanted to give an update on, Lord willing, the releases of the remaining 19 South Korean Christians.
According to various news reports, Afghanistan's Taliban militants have agreed to release all 19 remaining Christian aid workers it holds hostage on condition that South Korea withdraws its troops from the country within this year as planned and prohibit its nationals from conducting evangelical activities in Afghanistan.
It does sound like the deal is not quite final and that it may take a little while for the prisoners to be released. Let's continue in prayer both for these Koreans and the country of Afghanistan.

Pilgrim's Progress Musical: Pilgrim is a modern musical adaptation of John Bunyan's classic work, Pilgrim's Progress. It was performed in spring 2009 by the high school students at my church. They did a great job. The script is by theatre professionals (and members of our church) Janice Mays and Cathy Mays. The music is by various artists, including Bob Kauflin, Zach Jones and Mark Altrogge. You can order a DVD of the production here.
Give Me An Answer Highschool Conference: I'm looking forward to joining Al Mohler, Russell Moore, Shane & Shane and hip-hop artist Flame at the SBTS conference for highschool students next spring. Details.
Stephen Altrogge Reviews Dug Down Deep: Over at the Blazing Center blog they've posted a very generous review of the book. Read it.
