I am taking a short break from writing E-Med(itations) for two reasons. First, my tech team, Matt Williams and company, and others have encouraged me to reach a larger audience, the greater Christian community. They are doing the lion’s share of the work to make this happen, but this also takes my time. Second, I need a break after ten years of writing and producing five E-Meds a week and three E-Meds per week this year.

As some of you know, the last 2-3 years have seen a lot of change for my wife and me, including a move across the country to the west coast. Resettling (still a work in progress) and determining how our ministry will look as the Lord leads us in new ways have been challenging. We are traveling more now that many COVID restrictions have been lifted. My work with Biblical Eldership Resources continues, though with lesser responsibility since I stepped down as founding director. We just returned from ten days in the country of Trinidad and Tobago, with many meetings with local churches and elders; in a few weeks, we head to New York and Ontario for three weeks of ministry. Additionally, significant time is spent in correspondence and locally, encouraging and helping believers.

I will return to writing E-Meds shortly, especially continuing the series on the Book of Psalms. Also, I will be finishing up preparations for publishing two past E-Med series in book form: An Introduction to Wisdom (based on Provers 1-9) and Preparation for Worship.

Meanwhile, I will post short blogs from time to time focusing on great truths from Scripture as a reminder to walk faithfully in the Lord. 

Blessings in the name of our Magnificient Lord,

Chuck Gianotti
