Pastor Rudy Rasmus to be Featured Through DEC.07 In Oprah’s Magazine

Houston, TX – Spirit Rising Music author, Pastor Rudy Rasmus, first appeared in the May 2007 issue of O, The Oprah Magazine, as contributor to the column, “What Do I Do Now?” Pastor Rudy’s contribution was initially for three issues, and has now been extended though December 2007 due to overwhelming positive response.

Pastor Rudy’s contribution will help readers as they try to figure out the right thing to do in each of their unique situations. They will write in with questions and scenarios to the panel and Pastor Rudy will answer them via the column. He will often address the topic of ethics vs. etiquette and right vs. wrong. His unique brand of faith sharing and radical hospitality is what everyone experiences when they encounter him, and now he is bringing it to “O.”

Pastor Rudy is the author of a new book entitled “Touch: The Power of Touch in Transforming Lives.” The book is part of a total experience, The Pastor Rudy Experience, which includes a music/DVD project titled “Vol. I TOUCH”, book and soon to be released audio book series all released on Mathew Knowles’ Spirit Rising Music. Pastor Rudy has been transformed with love, hope and faith. From a hustler on the streets running an hourly motel, to becoming the Pastor of a church living to touch and heal hearts; this is The Pastor Rudy Experience.

Touch is a book that will transcend many genres and reach many different readers from all walks of life. It is a human testimony, in part, and a chronicle of the lessons he’s learned over his years. It is a sly teaching device that both comforts and challenges.

In addition to Pastor Rudy’s O, The Oprah Magazine features and his book release, Pastor Rudy is teaming up with America’s Second Harvest –The Nation’s Food Bank Network and Beyoncé along with her Survivor Foundation to sponsor pre-concert food donation drives in Houston, Atlanta, Washington, D.C., Chicago, and Los Angeles as part of her Beyoncé Experience Tour. Pastor Rudy and Beyoncé have been hard at work raising thousands upon thousands of pounds of food to feed the hungry.
