Advent Readalong

November 10, 2025

Dear Everyone,

Peace be with you.

I will be hosting an Advent Readalong again this year. Advent begins on November 30th and we will be reading, “The Art of Advent: A Painting a Day from Advent to Epiphany,” by Dr. Jane Williams. The book is available in paperback and as an ebook.

A couple of years ago, we read, “The Art of Lent: A Painting a Day from Ash Wednesday to Easter” by Sister Wendy Beckett for our Lenten readalong and I enjoyed it very much.

Everyone is invited to join with me on this Advent readalong. We will begin with the first reading on November 30th. I will post reflections here on my website.

I hope that you will join me. All the best and thanks for reading,

As a celebration, I’m hosting a watchalong party for episode one of “Gabriel’s Inferno.” The watchalong party will take place on the All Things SR podcast Mixlr page, which you can find here, on Sunday, October 12th at 3PM Eastern. You will need to create an account with Mixlr in order to participate in the chat. We will be watching the episode on our devices, either through DVD or through subscription to Passionflix. You can also view the first episode for free on Passionflix.com. I think you will need to enter your email.

Gabriel Series Boxed Set

June 13, 2025

Dear Everyone,

Passionflix has reached out to let me know that their plan is to release a complete boxed set of all films of “The Gabriel Series,” hopefully this fall. That’s all the information I have at the moment.

As you know, the DVDs of “Gabriel’s Inferno” and “Gabriel’s Rapture” are sold out at the Passionflix store. “Gabriel’s Redemption” is still available.

I’ll post updates as I receive them. Thank you for your support and for helping Passionflix sell out of their inventory. Remember that you can continue to view all the films through Passionflix’s streaming service. And audiobooks of all the books, including “Gabriel’s Promise,” are still available.

All the best,

Lenten Readalong #6

April 11, 2025

Dear Everyone,

Our Lenten journey is coming to an end. This week, all that remains of “Three Simple Rules” is a hymn adapted from John Wesley’s writings, “Stay in Love with God.” While I was looking for a recording of the hymn, I found a short introduction to “Three Simple Rules” Bishop Job, the author, which you can view here. The hymn is played at the end of the video.

This week, I intend to re-read the previous section on Prayer and try to structure my daily prayer around this guide. And I intend to take time to mediate on the hymn and other sacred music. I welcome your comments and reflections below, and your favourite sacred music.

On Sunday, I’ll be joining the All Things SR Podcast chatroom at 2PM (Eastern). Join me here.

I hope everyone celebrating has a Blessed Holy Week and a Happy Easter. I also want to wish a Chad Pesach Sameach to my Jewish friends as they celebrate Passover.

Peace be with you all,
