Welcome to the Tesco Productions recording studio website – and thanks for dropping by. We hope you will stop in regularly so you can stay up to date with news of clients and advances here (and a possible “latest catch” picture – more details in “Meet the Engineer“).
Tesco Productions is the second oldest continuous running sound recording studio and audio production service in Omaha. However, we’ve often been referred to over the years as one of Omaha’s “best kept secrets” – and so here’s the grand tour. Along the way you’ll meet some very special people – our clients, who often become friends, and hear and see some of their experiences with Tesco Productions. Hopefully you will find as well the heart, motivation, skill and experience we try to bring to each project and event. So welcome back, or come on in if it’s your first visit.
Although a bit of double meaning for “Audible”, the book written by Grant Garwood is now officially available on Amazon Audible. The final content was posted last month, has completed the approval process and can be found here.
The writing is a Christian apologetic – meaning it’s an explanation of proof for the Bible’s validity. I wrote in July more about the book’s content. As Grant explains, he didn’t intend to even remotely make a complete exposition of the topic, but to summarize a few of the key points and provide a concise read and listen. The print version makes a handy compact tool to share with others, and I’ve handed out multiples to date. Thank you Grant for your patience with the production process. I think the end result well favors the good work you put into writing and reading it.
The Far Bank is officially launched. A group of people were invited recently to share in thank yous, behind-the-scenes stories and a great meal fit for an “outdoor” book. Held at a shoreline home in central Nebraska, the day was also the culmination of an all day fishing contest that individuals competed in by submitting photos and documentation of their catch during the day. Rewards included copies of The Far Bank and other prizes. I was honored to attend and met a number of individuals who have contributed to Zeke’s life personally, professionally, spiritually, and had also given birth to some of the fishing stories included in the book. It was good to put a face with some of the people I heard about as I recorded and processed the audiobook version.
The audio and printed book is published by David C. Cook Publishing where you can find links to obtain your copy. If you’re an angler, it’s a great book to have with you to share with other like-minded fishing enthusiasts and help fulfill what Jesus called his disciples to when he said, “I will make you fishers of men”.
This month has found me doing the editing and processing on Grant Garwood’s Biblical Apologetic, Proof You Can’t Ignore, with a subtitle of “The Mini Book of Evidence for God, Jesus & the Bible”. All the content is finished and will soon be posted on Amazon Audible. As soon as it’s up I’ll include a link here for you to find it.
In about 65 pages Grant summarizes a lot of research and evidence concerning the existence of God, the reliability of the Bible, and what the Bible says about Jesus. The first chapter covers a lot of scientific information concerning our universe and uniqueness of our planet Earth. The second chapter looks at manuscript evidence for Biblical writings and compares that to other writings of antiquity. The third chapter then draws upon the first two, and focuses on what we can know about Jesus from the Bible and other writings penned during the time of Jesus’ earthly life and shortly after, to current thoughts about various aspects concerning His life, death, burial and resurrection. These chapters are followed by two short summary sections that ask us to consider what our final verdict should be based on the facts and evidence presented, and then poses the stark question about the consequences of ignoring these truths. Additional resources are included and the suggestion is made multiple times throughout to dig into those.
Grant states early in the book that it’s not an in depth expose of the area of Christian Apologetics, but rather a summary of three key areas. It’s intended to provide thought and further inquiry for someone not yet convinced of Biblical truth, and also as an encouragement for the person who does believe the Bible’s content but may be needing some further evidence and assurance that what they’re believing is really credible. The book is well-researched and written, and it doesn’t take a long time to read or listen to. Well done Grant. May many people find truth and encouragement through Proof You Can’t Ignore.
