I wanted to post the info below much earlier, but became bogged down with both illness, followed by a busy schedule as I was behind on projects.
Well, better late than never! : )
Below is an excerpt from a press release about Internet Evangelism Day. I hope you will support this bold, worthy effort:
Sunday, April 27, has been designated as Internet Evangelism Day. Churches can download free materials from the Internet Evangelism Day website. These materials make it easy for churches to create a short presentation about online outreach on or near that Sunday. A PowerPoint, video clip testimonies, drama scripts, music and handouts can be used to create their own customized program lasting from one minute to 50.
The people behind Internet Evangelism Day also provide year-round resources about online outreach. The ministry explains many ways that Christians can share the good news, including through church websites. Churches often find it difficult to create a site that will engage with outsiders in their area, and find themselves asking, "How can our church website help us reach out into our community?"A new online tool released by IE Day provides churches with a free 15-page evaluation report. Users assess their own website by answering 55 simple questions. Their customized report is immediately displayed online, ready to print or save. The report's recommendations are tailored with specific practical suggestions, based on the questions that were ticked. View the evaluation tool here: www.InternetEvangelismDay.com/design

Your Brother in Christ,
Hello friends!The Holy Spirit has me busy at work on a new Internet talk show I'll host each week about writing and self-publishing tips at http://www.blogtalkradio.com/Write-On-Right-On
I hope you'll be able to tune into my live talk show online and even call-in to the show!
The free number to call-in is: (646) 200-3542
The show airs live on the following dates this month:
--Thursday, April 3: 11:30AM (Eastern Time)
If you can't listen live, no problemo as the show will be recorded and be made available for listeners at any time.
Given that I'll be hosting the weekly Write On talk show, (which is basically an audio blog), this written blog will no longer be written daily.Instead, this blog will provide info and resources in support of the weekly talk show.
I'm excited about this blessing, to be able to spread the Good News, to the uttermost parts of the earth, via the Internet.
I hope you'll listen!
Have a blessed day by telling someone about Jesus!Your Brother in Christ,
This is real short notice, but...
You are cordially invited to listen to my new Internet talk show,
called "Write On, Right On, Write On!" on
http://www.blogtalkradio.com/Write-On-Right-On
The program will be about writing and self-publishing tips.
This Saturday at 6pm ET, I will do a 15 min. practice run of my
show so that I can get a feel for the technology. I'm pretty tired
from composing, recording and uploading my theme music--wait
'til you hear it! A warning in advance...I will need piano lessons soon. : )
You can call-in during my show to speak to me live at:
(646) 200-3542.
I hope to do a weekly
show soon, so you'll have an opportunity to hear
me run my mouth in the near future. : )
If you'd like to be a guest on a future show, please
contact me.
God bless,
When you can't seem to write anything, for whatever reason, start a blog, where you can write daily about subjects that come to you fluidly, such as diary passages about what happened during your day, a hobby, dreams, or any topic that you have a passion for.
What is a blog exactly? Blog is a funny word, but it is short "Web log." Blogging basically involves writing short, diary-type entries on any topic, that one shares with the entire world. If you allow ads on your blog, you can earn money as well. Google has a great service that I use, called Blogger.com, which permits one to create a free blog and restrict ads to specific topics, such as Christianity.
Last year, the U.S. morning news program, Good Morning America, did a really good story on how one can use a blog to spread a message and earn money.
I personally encourage Christians to use the Internet to spread the Gospel through blogging.
As a Christian writer, I think of blogging in this fashion:
In Acts 1:8, Jesus told his disciples and us, that when we accept Jesus, the Holy Spirit will help us to witness to others: "... you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth." The Internet makes it possible to witness for Christ to the uttermost parts of the earth.
Your Brother in Christ,
The Web site, AllAboutJesusChrist.org does a good job of discussing the resurrection of Christ.
There are a number of great online sermons about the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ.
Here are several that I recommend (look for the week of March 17, 2008):
Enduring Truth with Pastor Paul Sheppard
In Touch with Dr. Charles Stanley
Living on the Edge with Chip Ingram
Your Brother in Christ,
I'm taking a break this week from the blog and spending some vacation time
with my family.
If time permits this week, I will post new audio clips from my recent radio
appearances on my YouTube.com page.
Have a blessed life by learning more about Jesus!

God bless,
I will be posting resources I discussed on today's show on this blog today!
At present, I'm currently posting new info, so if you've read the tips below, be sureTypes of Self-Publishing:
Given that I self-publish all of my books, I’m often asked about self-publishing by aspiring authors and authors who have used other means to publish their work.
Here are a few tips I have to offer on this subject (this is just my advice, and if you follow it, it is not guaranteed to work for you.)…
1. Pray: Pray before you venture into publishing your work. I also pray everyday before beginning a writing session.
2. Learn about various forms of Publishing: Become familiar with the various types of publishing, such as traditional, vanity, subsidy and self-publishing, and decide what’s best for you.
A resource I used to learn the definitions of different types of publishing is located on the Web site of the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America: http://www.sfwa.org/beware/vanitypublishers.html
In my next blog entry, I'll provide a list of Web addresses for some of the resources mentioned and not mentioned during the discussion today on Crosstalk Urban Style.
Be sure to check back in about an hour!
