As Christians, we pray for God's kingdom to come and His will to be done here on earth. One of the ways God answers that prayer is by providing opportunities for you to be a part of a ministry that sows gospel seeds and helps make disciples of Christ. There are a number of ways you can participate in this ministry with little effort or personal cost:
As parents, you are the primary catechist (faith teacher) for your children. While God can still develop faith in a child without the help of his parents, children generally weigh the importance of things based on what their parents emphasize in the home. These studies are designed to be completed in under ten minutes a day. I try to publish them as early as possible so they can be done first thing in the morning if that is best for you. If your children are too young to grasp the concepts in these studies, it is fine if you use them to grow in your own faith and teach your children at their level. The important thing is to develop a daily habit of connecting with God's word and making this a legacy for your family. One way you can easily do this is to subscribe to the daily studies by email.
If you use social media, please share these studies regularly and encourage people to follow me on or or sign up for the daily emails. If you participate in a Bible study which goes through a book of the Bible I cover on this site, encourage people to use it as a resource. Even better would be if you want to lead a group through one of my studies. The Question of the day makes for good discussion, and the study and prayer will help keep the group focused on the text being covered. If your group chooses to go through studies that I've published on Amazon, it would be so very helpful for you leave a positive review. Those who do not wish to purchase my books can access the entries on the website, but the books have worked well in my own group studies, and there's something to be said about keeping things offline.
Another way you can make a positive impact for this ministry is by connecting with me with an encouragement or suggested edit. I do my best to proofread, but sometimes it takes additional eyes to see things that I've missed or have typed in error. I don't do this for the praise of people, but that doesn't mean it isn't edifying to me to hear about something that has made an impact on you.
I realize WordPress is all the rage, but my software, NetApprentice, can be customized to meet your needs, and you'll get to work with me on creating a website that blesses your organization and helps out a brother in Christ. Visit 3nerds.com to see some of what I can do for your organization. I'm happy to schedule a video call to share some examples and get to know you better.
Believe it or not, it is not easy to find photographs to supply a daily blog. If you want to share some with me, I can give you a Google Drive link in which to upload them. I compress them for the screen so people can't steal them, and I have Adobe Lightroom and to enhance photos. So please reach out to me if you would like me to use some of your clearest nature or artistic photos, and I will give you name recognition for them on the site and email posts. Some things to consider:
Outside of the costs associated with running and hosting a website, I would like to be able to boost posts on social media to extend their reach. If you can do so joyfully, I would appreciate your consideration of a small monetary gift. Here are options for you to do a onetime gift of your choosing or a monthly $5 gift:
