Costs: My goal is to make writing available to a wide readership. Christian publishing follows a market economy approach that privileges the wealthier countries, but most of my ministry has been in other regions of the world. While, as Paul says, the workman is worthy of his hire (1 Corinthians 9), I have made a number of the books available for free, and everything else (other than publications with publishers) offered here should be affordable to the world Church. If it is not, please contact me.
