Books books books!

(This image is a pictorial illustration of what my life looks like now)

I'll be honest, I really don't like writing support letters or calling supporters who haven't sent their monthly commitment. 20 out of 10 missionaries agree that raising support for the ministry can be an uncomfortable thing for many reasons. I don't like asking for money, especially from people who might not ever see what I do for themselves. I believe I have found one small piece of the solution.
If you look to the right side of this blog, you should see a widget titled "I Recommend." This widget will direct you to books that have helped me in my journey. If you buy any of these books with this widget, I will get a small percentage of the sale. This is just one stream of income that I am positioning myself to receive.
Another stream is an online book store with Amazon.com. I continually work hard to locate books of various values that I can sell on Amazon. If you buy a book from my book store (Kingdom Co-Op), a bigger percentage of the sales will go directly to funding the ministry I have here in Los Angeles. I am also in the process of training people in my neighborhood to build their own book stores so that they can find their place in terms of industry. Please browse through Kingdom Co-Op and see if anything interests you. I will also gladly take any books that could be cluttering your home. Please comment on this post or send me a private message if you would like to set up a book donation with me. Thank you!
