Reflections of Christ

More good news.

Yesterday Cameron Trejo's documentary "making of Reflections"  made it's debut... 

This DVD is packed with new footage that people haven't seen before about how Reflections of Christ was made, including a longer section on the making of the music of Reflections of Christ. 

Also the slideshow that has floated around online is available in a high-res version so people can use it on their TVs or project it. It's on the DVD as a bonus feature. 

There were a ton of people that wanted to use the slideshow for lessons... Here it is. 

Congratulations to Cameron on an inspiring documentary that has received requests from all over the world. 

Kudos also to Clyde, Jason, Freddie, Alex, Mylenda, Hope, Catherine, The Alston Sisters, Brandon, and the choir on an epic musical collaboration. 

Check them out.

Book Announcement.

Reflections of Christ "the book" is available for pre-order at www.Deseretbook.com

http://deseretbook.com/store/product?sku=5016063

For those that get it today they are also offering a free 8x10 of the Resurrection Image. (that link is courtesy of the More Good Foundation and Christ.org, I just wanted everyone to check it out). 

The designers of this book have sent out my exact message. That is a very strait-forward witness of Jesus Christ. I wanted a book that leaves room for the imagination to work and for a friend or parent to be able to teach from it. Each page of the book has imagery (some of which hasn't been seen in full on the website) and scripture from the New Testament... that's it. 

There is a personal-narrative preface (written by yours truly) that explains some of the more poignant moments in making Reflections of Christ. (I usually skip the part of me talking). Also, some technical information at the end of the book. 

Deseret Book has thoughtfully made it very affordable... for this I'm grateful. As many as would like to have the book may get it.

On a deeper level the publishing of this book has pushed me... and leaves me feeling spiritually wrung out  . It's nerve racking to send out this work without my being there to explain every little detail of it. It will become a way for people to teach their kids and friends about Jesus Christ. Other people will have the chance to interpret what's going on in the art. It becomes "Grandpa's book" or "mom's book" as kids associate the pictures with their parents and teachers stories about Christ. 

So... Here it is. Enjoy.

Traveling Exhibit.

We have neared completion on a traveling exhibit of Reflections of Christ. We have scheduled stops in: Boise, ID; Salt Lake City, Ut; Northern California and Southern California. In the mean time, we still have an exhibit in the Edmonton area. Which is showing right now in Fort St. Johns, Alberta. Stay tuned for more information... Please drop me a line if you live near one of these places and are interested in hosting an exhibit.

Pulling into town... 

Oh Canada! This 37 hour drive was totally worth it.
