Why No Copyrights?
(Eventually, this will have an audio/video presentation as well as text.)

I want to make all ministry materials free, with no copyright restrictions of any sort.  This desire is to maximize the effect of this ministry on the lives of people.  Any questions?

1. What if someone takes these and sells them for profit.  No fair, right?  We did the work, why should they make money off of it?  Not only are they making money off of our work, but they are taking the money that may have come our way.  Royalties can easily become a great money source.

Answer: That's ok:

Philippians 1
17The former preach Christ out of selfish ambition, not sincerely, supposing that they can stir up trouble for me while I am in chains. 18But what does it matter? The important thing is that in every way, whether from false motives or true, Christ is preached. And because of this I rejoice.

2 Corinthians 2:17
Unlike so many, we do not peddle the word of God for profit. On the contrary, in Christ we speak before God with sincerity, like men sent from God.

2.  What if someone uses these materials to slander us or one of the presenters?

Answer: That's ok:

Matthew 5:10
Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
 
1 Corinthians 4:13
when we are slandered, we answer kindly. Up to this moment we have become the scum of the earth, the refuse of the world.
3. What is someone uses these to promote false religions or ideas? 

Answer: It's worth the risk.

 
4. What if someone listens to these and decides to seek God? 

Answer: Great!  May God be glorified.

Matthew 5
15Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. 16In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven.
