     Be sure to include the following in either type of request:  

     1 - Your Name, E-Mail, and MAILING address including COUNTRY. (Very Important)

     Remember, I live in the United States, and need you to show me how to address the package to you. Be sure to put what belongs on separate lines of your address on separate lines in your email so I will know how to write it. I will copy the address to the package exactly as YOU write it on the form. Please write your address with the thought that I know nothing about how to send mail to your country and it will work out fine. 

Please do not use abbreviations! Spell out all addresses in full including city, state, province, country, and so on. I'll use appropriate abbreviations in mailing if I recognize your location. 

     Remember, there is no cost for the CD or postage or anything else. This is really a genuine, free offer. However some have asked how they could donate to the support of this ministry, email us for details. Many things are useful: Prayers, stamps, money for postage (PayPal is available) even something as simple as rolls of postal tape. You name it. You could even "sponsor" delivery of so many packages if you wanted, such as "Shipment of this package was made possible by a gift from the Mungomi family, South Africa" (not a real name)

Questions Many People Ask - (FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions)

What will I get?

A CD with nearly all of our sermons in MP3 format, ready to play using any computer or MP3 player, as well as a variety of electronic Bibles and related programs we've found as space allows. So far, we usually include the New Testament in MP3, E-Sword, PC Study Bible, Bible Pro, Bible Seeker, Theopholos, and the Old/New Testament in standard .PDF format among others. The exact CD contents may vary sometimes due to space needs. 

How many can I order?

     What you need. Usually one or two sets, but if you are writing for your friends, that's fine too. One person included the addresses of over 20 friends that didn't have Internet - and that's fine with us. And if we can ship them all to a single address and have YOU distribute them, it saves us a lot on shipping.

What will the CD set cost? Who pays for mailing the CDs, anyway?

     Nothing - ever. When we come to the point we'd have to charge for them, we'll withdraw the offer. I paid for the costs and used donated money for some years, but since I am no longer able to do so, the blank CD and mailing costs are now an outreach ministry of the North Bend, Oregon USA Church of Christ, where most of the sermons were recorded. Our longest term and most selfless supporter of the ministry outside of "our" local church is Clara Mae Waters, who lives in the state of Florida, USA. 

What should I watch for in the mail?

     A square white package the size of a CD made of poster board containing 2 CDs. We are to be good shepherds of donated money and need to get the most value for the dollar spent in mailing. We make our own simple, but sturdy, mailers. (If you can improve on the design, please write to us!)

Can I make a copy for my friend? Record them on tape, Etc?

     Yes! Make as many as you want. Use them in church, Bible studies, Christian schools, Etc.. (For legal purposes: The sermon and devotional content is (C) Copyright 1993-2010 by the authors. Your are hereby permitted to distribute the CD's contents in whole or part in any form you like but only in not-for-profit situations that glorify God. You may not charge a "duplication fee" or "media fee" in excess of what it cost you to produce and deliver the copy. If it cost you about a dollar, a dollar or two is all you can charge. There is no need to quibble over pennies) You're can also offer them on your website for download. After doing so, please email us so we can add your site to our list of links.

What about Privacy? Are you going to give my address or e-mail to anyone?

     Only the members of the Word For Life management team (Mark Magill, daughter Susan, Andrew Cooper, and Mona Clark, Marilee Miller) will have this information. Mark, Susan, and Marilee live in two cities in Oregon, Andrew in Texas, and Mona in Maine. We absolutely =will not=  give the information to anyone else unless required to by law, either as part of a direct investigation or as a Friend of the Court - and that is very unlikely. Soon, one more member will join the team, shipping from Africa. and will have access to addresses to be shipped from there. 

HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE TO GET HERE??!!??

     It depends on where you live. I try to ship them out every other Monday. To the United States,  Canada, about 4-7 business days after shipment. Most of South Africa, Ghana, Zimbabwe, Malaysia, United Kingdom, New Zealand, Nigeria - about two weeks just to give you an idea. 

I want to help you with this, is there anything I can do?

     Pray for the success of this ministry. Also, be patient waiting for your CD to arrive But not too patient! Hold me accountable for it - the evil one would love to make me lazy and slow in sending out these powerful words, so write if you've waited 4 weeks no matter where you live. When it arrives, make a copy or two (or 10,000,000) and give them away to someone if you can.
