He wrote Blue Like Jazz, which is not being made into a movie and this book is about that experience--writing a screenplay from his memoir. It is really well written. Adult Ed Council is reading it together this summer--RPC is going to do a lot with telling your story this year. Will pass it on when I finish with it for council, but if you can grab it now do so (John loved it too).Carolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01532506505684844490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2166914705319045717.post-2557544750118258182010-07-27T08:49:40.958-07:002010-07-27T08:49:40.958-07:00My interest is piqued; I'd love to read this b...My interest is piqued; I'd love to read this book.

I wonder if it's easier to obey when we know the voice we're hearing is God's.<br /><br />Then again, I am sure that I've heard God's voice telling me, like the author, to hold my tongue.
