DEVOTIONAL BOOK
Common Bond

Todd and a local writer and friend, Jill Laffoon, have finally pulled off a dream that has taken 5 years to become a reality.  Through a strange and what some would consider a "God set of circumstances", Todd met a senior editor who invited him to do a project with New Leaf Press out of California.  As a result, Todd and Jill wrote a devotional based on the songs from his first album, Common Bond.  This project contains writings by Todd personally about each of the ten songs on this recording project, followed by 10 life stories either written by each person or through interviews with people whose life story mirrors the theme of each song. 

This is a book filled with stories of how Christian people encountered difficulty, tragedy, and trial, and desired to honor God with their responses.  The devotional comes with 10  real-life-stories and a FREE CD of Todd's first recording, Common Bond.  These "life stories" come from the following people:
 

• Gracia Burnham, Rosehill, KS - Author of the book In the Presence of Mine Enemies, kidnapped with her husband in the Philippines, then finally rescued, only to lose her husband to a stray bullet in the effort to free them.
