Sam, When and where can I buy your book. I really feel the Lord has led me to your web site. I am starting a college ministry in my home next week. I live in a small town in Texas with a junior college. It is in desperate need of ministries aimed at this age group. Most churches in my town will occasionally see some students, but too few to have any regular class or group. Please pray for my ministry and let me know how to get your book. I really feel it would be alot of help.
Mark –
I will certainly pray for you and your ministry tonight. As for my book, you can click on the above picture, and it will take you to the LifeWay site where you can purchase it. Of ocourse, you can always purchase it at LifeWay brick and morter stores. It is also on Amazon.com. The book is currently available.
just ordered the book. i look forward to reading it.
Sam,
Love the book. Thanks for the free download. I have a request. Can I print your free download information in our church’s 25th Anniversary Magazine along with your website and bio? The magazine will be given away free and mailed across the Dallas/Fort Worth, TX area and the U.S. throughout October 2008. Thanks.

Veronica –
I do not have a problem with you printing the information about the download, but I am not sure how long it will be available. B&H (my publisher) is doing the promotion for a limited time.
I hope all is well in the Metroplex!
FYI: The link to the book in the lifeway.com store is broken (or the lifeway.com website is down — it is reporting a 404 error, Page not Found).
Patrick – thanks for the heads up! I’ve fixed the link.
I want to thank the Lord for the wisidom and revelation he has impated to you i was realy encouraged by the book God bless you.
Just ordered your book. Thank you for taking the time to write down your thoughts about this topic. Best. Larry.
Thanks Larry!
Pastor Sam:
Many of your inputs in the ministry were very constructive and helpful. I was blessed. Praised the Lord for the passion he has given in your heart. I like it too.
GREETINGS FROM PAKISTAN IN THE WONDERFUL NAME OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST, I HOPE ALL IS WELL WITH YOU AND YOURS BY THE GRASE OF GOD.
