Hi again!

A big thanks to everyone who has sent me emails recently. I got some great ideas from y'all and I look forward to using as many as I can.

New Comics:
I went on a driving tour recently through the CA wine country, so I missed a week, but I still have 6 new comics this month for your enjoyment. If these thumbnails are hard to read on your screen, just click on a panel and it'll take you to that comic in full size.

Feedback:
As I said earlier, I'm always interested in your comic suggestions. Ann told me that her church just installed a bell tower that also doubles as a cellular tower, and there are lots of discussions going around about what songs to play - including Stairway to Heaven. I also heard from Rev. Bob Gray who has given me some good Christmas ideas to work with. More about that soon!

Friends of Bob:
I'm compiling a list of the churches that are using Finding Elim in some capacity, and I will be listing them on the site with a link back to their website. It's good for you and good for me, so everybody wins! If you've used a strip recently, let me know!

Links of the month:
Kazu Kibuishi has got to be one of the hardest working comic artists in the business. His drawing and coloring skills are truly amazing, and his ability to tell stories through pictures is equally stellar. He is also the creator of an upcoming anthology for all ages called "Flight Explorer." It's a spin-off of the popular "Flight" anthologies, but with stories that are approved for "more sensitive viewers." His most recent graphic novel is called "Amulet," and is already in its second printing even though it hasn't yet hit the shelves!

If you are looking for good Christian rock, one of my favorites is a Texas singer/songwriter named Wayne Kerr. He plays a lot of concerts here in town and is currently gearing up for a CD release at the end of the year. Check 'im out and if you have your own favorites, tell me about them - especially if they are a little unusual.

Have a great month!
