Occasionally I get requests from regular readers of my website and blog to donate to my ministry. I appreciate the gesture, but I am uncomfortable saying, say “Sure, send me your money. Here is my address.” So I’ve come up with an idea that allows you to give, and me to benefit from your generosity without feeling awkward. If you have benefited from my ministry and would like to express your gratitude, rather than sending me money (which God knows I have more than I know what to do with—NOT), purchase a book for me from my Amazon wish list (my shipping address is pre-programmed). I am an avid reader. More books means more material for my blog.
For anyone who buys this poor man a book, I say “Thank you!”

Today I received three books from my wish list: There is a God by Antony Flew, How Much Does God Know by Steven Roy, and Christianity Without the Cross by Thomas Fudge. To the giver, I say “thank you!” I can’t wait to read them. I’m sure they contain great blogging fodder.

One more book came in: The Design of Life. This is a textbook on Intelligent Design. I’ve heard great things about it. Thank you!
