I have a request for anyone who is interested in helping me prepare
for Christian ministry.
I’m working on building my library of reference works and
the like to help me when I eventually transition over to full-time ministry,
God-willing. I hope to serve as a missionary overseas, but I’m still open to
the idea of working and serving as a pastor in the U.S. Since I can’t be sure
whether I’ll serve in the States or overseas, I’ve been focusing on saving
physical shelf space by purchasing Kindle (ebook) versions of the larger, weightier
titles.
Recently the whole NIV Application Commentary Series went on
sale for the Kindle, being priced between $4.74 and $4.99 until Monday, May 13,
2013. I picked up three volumes from this series (Deuteronomy, Haggai/Zechariah,
and 1 Corinthians). Since I’m taking a seminary class this summer, I had to buy
all my seminary books last month, and I’ll be paying for my tuition this month,
so I can’t afford to buy any more.
Here’s where the request comes in: would you be willing to
gift me a title for my library? It would help me in my own studies, as well as
in sermon preparation when called on to preach. Sermon preparation can easily take
upwards of 10 hours, and would be even longer if I were in full-time ministry,
so commentaries and other resources like this can help save me time.
Eventually, if I do end up overseas, I could take my entire Kindle library with
me, whereas most of my physical book library might have to be left behind.
If you’re willing to help me out, below a list of the titles
I’m most interested it along with a link to the title itself. The asterisk (*)
marks my most wanted titles. On the right side of the product page, you’ll see
a green box where you can order the title. In that box is the option to “Give
as Gift.” Clicking that button will take you through the checkout process. It
will require an email, so you can send it to:
wencl1440 (at) gmail (dot) com
Thank you so much if you decide to help.
