“Freely you have received; freely give.” (Matthew 10:8, BSB)
Here is something simple that we love.
When someone buys one of our books on Amazon, the small royalty does not stay in a pocket. It goes back out the door — as a free book for someone who could never buy one.
We call it paying it forward. You read a book that helps you. The few dollars you spent help translate and give that same hope to a family on the other side of the world. You may never meet them. You may never learn their name. But the light reaches their window because it first reached yours.
This is how the whole thing holds together. Those who can pay, do — and their paying opens the door for those who can’t. No one is shamed for an empty wallet. No one is turned away at the checkout. The book is free for the one who needs it free.
We think that is close to how the Kingdom works. We did not earn the grace we were handed. We received it freely, and now we get to pass it on. Every book that goes out for free is one more lamp lit in one more home.
So if you have ever bought one of our titles — thank you. You did more than read. You carried the light a little farther than you could see.
“Give, and it will be given to you.” (Luke 6:38, BSB)
We have found that to be true, over and over again.
