My Book

Posted By on June 12, 2009

Since the launch of this blog I have received many questions about my book that is mentioned in my bio, so here are some points about the book:

Ø      The book is entitled Repentance and Recovery

Ø      It is the story of as well as principles I learned from the situation of loosing my ministry over a moral mistake.

Ø      It is currently only a manuscript as I seek to sell its rights to a publisher.

Ø      I began gathering materials for it the week of my resignation in August, ’07 and finished editing it early this year.

Ø      The only people who have read it are my editor and me.  I am not sending out samples to everyone who asks but I will be blogging on excerpts from it.

Ø      I had another Christian writer advise me against hiring an agent off the bat and rather to try and reach publishers on my own.

Ø      I refuse to self-publish.

Ø      Writing it while I was in the situation and feeling the emotions was great therapy.

Ø      I site everything from dead, conservative preachers to modern pop song lyrics.

Ø      The big idea of the book is: don’t blow it, but if you do, you can make it back.

    Great answers to probably the FAQ’s. I self published a book I wrote. No regrets because I would not consider it very well done. I am not convinced that it would have made the best seller’s list had Zondervan got a hold of it. haha. I hope that someone picks it up soon!

  2. David, how could I get my hands on a copy?
