Going Crazy Over Lincoln
Going Crazy Over Lincoln: On vacation I read Team of Rivals and Manhunt. Next in line are two by Ronald C. White, Jr.: A. Lincoln and Lincoln's Greatest Speech. I just wrote James L. Swanson an email that probably made me sound like a crazed groupie. I think I need professional help. I want to go visit Edwin Stanton's grave in Georgetown. Anybody wanna come?

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.

I laughed reading your question. How I wish I can join you? Oh well, I'm in the Philippines. LOL!

Upon Justin Taylor's recommendation I just finished Manhunt as well. I too am a groupie. Thanks for the other suggestions... sounds like they too were enjoyable too. God is so good to us to let us enjoy captivating history.

LOL! I'm somewhat of a Lincoln nut myself. If you haven't been to the new Lincoln museum in Springfield, you really need to go. It's fantastic, very well done. You'll love it. You can road trip there right after you go visit Stanton. :)
