Good luck. Never compromise your beliefs for political gain less you become the worst type of hypocrite.

Awesome! Wish you all God's best! I've been in your shoes before and I have no regrets!

Grace and blessings!

Hey, whatever it takes to get that Super Bowl!

God bless you man! I'll be praying for you. I would love to see your book in Logos format. I see that there is at least one other title from AuthorHouse available in Logos, so Faithlife/Logos and your publisher have collaborated in the past. Theological/spiritual resources are so incredible to read and study through in the Logos system, and perhaps if you go through the process of making your work available in Logos, it might prove attractive to folks like myself who would get much more utility out of a book in Logos format than, for example, Kindle. Also, if you're in Logos, then your work would be more visible to the many pastors, preachers, lay ministers, etc. who would be searching on the Logos websites.

Thanks, Big Slick.

J/k. Sort of

Best of luck. And never forget the greatest of sins: hypocrisy

 

[BigSlick]

Naw, there are way greater sins than hypocrisy. I'll take a hypocrite over a murderer or rapist any day of the week. And I think that knowingly and willfully rejecting God's sovereignty, and/or trying to corrode the faith of others would also be worse. Anyways, there's tons of other stuff that's worse. Am I crazy?

No. But as an evangelist it’s the one that should likely be foremost on your own watch list.

And one thing to consider is it’s probably among the top reason people turn away from the church. It’s why I did. So if your goal is to bring people to God and you end up turning more away, that has to be a fairly big sin no?

Anyway, I didn’t mean to distract this. I do wish the best of luck

Jesus didn’t talk too much about rapists and murders (maybe he thought those were self evident), but he sure did have lots to say about hypocrites- didn’t much care for them, if memory serves

He also seemed to put the onus of keeping the faith on the faithful themselves- seemingly if you are strong in your faith, you don’t have to worry about the outside forces
