(ABP) -- Anne Rice, she of Interview with the Vampire fame, recommitted to her Catholic faith a few years ago and has since dedicated herself to writing novels that explore the life of Jesus. First came Christ the Lord: Out of Egpyt, and in 2008 Rice published Christ the Lord: The Road to Cana. This novel, which I am reading now, depicts Jesus’ life as a young adult leading up to his first miracle at the wedding in Cana. It is fiction, of course, but Rice has tried hard to be as faithful to historical knowledge about Jesus’ life and world as possible. She imagines in this novel Jesus facing the temptation as a man in his late 20s to marry like all of his friends and brothers.

(ABP) -- In my opinion, one of the scariest people in the world of a young pastor is the head usher at her first church. This I can pretty much verify by my experience with Edna May Reynolds.

(ABP) -- I'm a passionate guy. Not only do I understand when a person's commitment to his or her ministry prompts a passion that excludes consideration that another ministry might be just as valid, I often applaud it. Every ministry needs advocates willing to stand on a hill and wave the banner for it or that ministry will suffer the ignominious fate that befalls the lukewarm and anonymous.

(ABP) -- Why is a plot of land smaller than New Jersey the stage for so much world history? I am leading study tours in Israel and Egypt as this column is being posted. This is my 12th time to travel in the Middle East. Each visit I marvel at the diminutive scale of Israel and think of the armies through history that have marched across her borders and fought over her lands.

(ABP) – One of my prayers for this season of Lent was to be more intentional about looking for Jesus in unexpected faces and places. Lo and behold, Jesus showed up for dinner.
