I'm trying to understand why people charge money for supposed Words from the Lord and visions of Hell and Heaven. If it were that important and that true, why on earth would you charge without providing at least a free online method for everyone. Just as freely as one writes something down on paper, one can type and post online just as easily... from home, the library or a friend or family member's house. There are many free websites to post up chapter after chapter. Heck, use blogspot or webs.com! They're free, plus if you want to try and still receive some income you can add ads to your pages and receive money per click. There is simply no excuse for charging people to get this AMAZING, must read info from the Lord Himself.
Now when it comes to needing money to sell your book, be frugal. Make the book a at low price and sell paperback for no more than $10 and then s/h costs... And really you could simply type it out yourself and print it all out 1 or two good times, and make copies as you get order payments in for maybe even $5 a book. There are just so many reasons for not charging... otherwise a stumbling block is created. Trust me, if you tell people that you have kept the book as basically made as possible to keep the book cost down, they will understand and even appreciate you all the more. God is going to bless it anyway.
I watch It's Supernatural and quite often people give these wonderful encounters of the miracles of God and want people to benefit... Then I go to their websites to see how much they charge for their story and it's ridiculous! $100 here, $35 there. Maybe $20. These people don't have a call center, company, staff of more than 3 person staff probably.
And what's so sad, is that these people in turn have the nerve to give scripture to justify their action. I just want someone to PLEASE explain this to me. I genuinely mean this.
Use John Pipers site to see what I mean about providing the word for free.
