We had a author email us the other day wanting to know how much it would cost to help them sell one million books? My reply was "maybe you should try to make the top 10 on Amazon first and then move up the ranks".
 
Don't get me wrong, it's good to dream. It's even good to set goals, however, sometimes one must wake up and consider reality.
 
Author's be not confused. Rarely does a unknown author sell millions of books. It just doesn't happen, however, that should not be the basis for giving up. As a new self published or even multi-published Christian author, you must start somewhere and put a marketing plan together that promotes your Christian book while also getting you as the author, the exposure that you need.
 
If you are a Christian author that is looking to share Christ with the world through your book, we would love to be a part of that. We can help you to create a author's website, a author's blog, provide you with a author's press release, a professional book review, and place your book on over 100 separate Christian sites that all share the love and redeeming passion of Christ around the world.

This group is really laid back. You should hear my story of how I made it through writing a book, then I tackled publishing, then some time back the third thing reared its head - MARKETING. After much valiant effort I came to understand a totally different animal – a brick wall of no definition. No that’s not accurate either because this thing (marketing) consumed way too much time, calculated effort, and money, which had little effect. All that I dumped into this thing called marketing quickly disappeared - vanished. Eventually the title The Void stuck. But then that’s just me, I can see that others on this site are not having the same problem I'm having; In fact, you're handling it very well. Keep up the good work because I over-exaggerate at times.

Enlightening & Inspirational!
Experiencing Jesus' Joy
Summer Special: $5/paperback

Brother James invites all to join him in developing a more joyous and fulfilling relationship with Jesus. Having seen many Christians living in spiritual poverty, Brother James wrote this book for those who want more out of their spiritual journey.

Since its printing Dr. Joseph has taught spiritual truths from Experiencing Jesus' Joy in several small group settings with good results. From some realizing that they had not considered Satan's deceptions properly, to others who realized that they had not been walking with Christ as fully as they should, all enjoyed studying together in order to understand more fully the importance of our role in working with God to build His and our eternal Kingdom and eternal close-knit holy family.

With our eyes focused on Jesus and a heightened awareness of the spiritual battles surrounding us daily, we can more fully and joyfully carry out God's designated parts for each of us. As we challenge others to repent and commit to following Jesus, God will give each of us joy and inner peace that transcends everything of this world.

In order to make Experiencing Jesus' Joy more affordable for the summer for your personal devotions and small group studies, the price for paperbacks from our first printing, which includes some typos, has been reduced to $5 per copy plus shipping at:

http://www.injesusservice.com/

To take advantage of this offer or find out more about Brother James, his ministry, and his books, visit the author’s website In Jesus’ Service. Experiencing Jesus' Joy, is also available through your local book stores and places on line such as Amazon in paperback, hard cover, and Kindle. You may also get paper and e-books at Barnes and Noble.

"Beware the Winds of Doctrine" is an honest look at what doctrine is-the study of the Word of God-and is a call to know the Word of God, therefore, exposing false doctrine. In the last days the Bible warns that many will be deceived. Author Henry Miranda exhorts believers to know their Bible and to not depend on what they hear, but what they "know" according to the Word of God.

"Fellowship with God" was written to help others in their walk with Christ and to help them enjoy His many blessings. Take the road less traveled; even though it may difficult at times; the path leads to eternal life. It's worth it!

This book will help those that are struggling with their faith or even doubting God. Henry Miranda reveals the scriptures in laymen's terms, unfolding for many, what true faith is.

"Eternal Life" addresses the controversial issue of life after death. According to the Word of God, the author exhorts the reader to come to choose the path of life that leads to eternal life with our creator.

This book touches on such subjects as the importance of prayer and scripture, the reality of spiritual warfare, the strength of our forefathers/saints in the faith, the hidden pain of many in our society-the poor/abused/homeless, the trap of misunderstanding people in situations we haven't experienced, such as chronic illness or domestic violence and the drawbacks of depending on drugs and doctors for healing, but most importantly God's eternal love for us.

Carol's testimony is one of hope, perseverance, endurance and faith when all else looks hopeless. Her testimony calls out to those in despair and let's them know that they are not alone and there is hope within God, "…if only we will reach out to Him." Her testimony shouts that there is a God in Heaven and He cares for each one of us, more dearly than any earthly parent would or ever could. Her book proclaims that there is love, grace and healing to be found in the arms of the Father.

When the trials of life become overwhelming, the Lord will see us through.

"Beware the Winds of Doctrine" by Author Henry Miranda is a call to stand fast upon the Holy Word of God, the Bible. As many preach the Gospel, we as Christians are called to be diligent students of the Word of God. By doing this we are taking hold of the truth, which enables us to have the knowledge not to be deceived. Many false teachers and preachers evangelize a Gospel that has turned away from the true Word of God. Henry Miranda in his book exhorts the born again Christian to study diligently the Word of God in this hour to know the truth and to not be led away by false doctrines.

As winds blow from one place to another, so the author writes that preachers have turned from the Word of God to become people pleasers. Many preach not the true Word of God, but preach what people want to hear. We as Christians are called to live a godly, holy life of repentance, turning away from sin and the lure of the world. Knowing your Bible will not only keep you from being deceived by false doctrines, but will also lead the reader on a path to living a life in Christ.

False religion is a tool of man and Satan that can keep one bound in false doctrine. therefore, we must know the Gospel of Jesus Christ only and daily live out the Gospel in our own lives as followers of Christ.

The author backs up his work by many scripture references. This book is suggested to be very helpful for the new Christian. Henry Miranda urges others to study the entire Bible in context and to read fully the entire gospel of Jesus Christ. We are to test the teachings we hear, to make sure they line up according to scripture. Jesus warned that there would be many false teachers and false prophets and warned us to be aware of wolves in sheep's clothing. The author is sounding the call to all Christians to study according to the Bible and not to believe everything that is preached from the pulpit.

Henry Miranda is a Bible teacher, Author, Writer and Evangelist. He lives in Southern California and has four daughters. He has written five books to include:

Eternal Life, Fellowship with God: Bright Lights on the Path Leading to Jesus, You've Been Warned, The Path to Eternal Life and his current book, Beware the Winds of Doctrine. You can learn more about Henry Miranda and his books by visiting Author Henry Miranda.

To order Author Henry Miranda's book Beware the Winds of Doctrine and other Henry Miranda books visit Beware the Winds of Doctrines on Amazon. You may also get the book on Kindle and you may also visit the writer at Faithwriters where you can read additional writings by the author.

The world is suffering from the effects of out-of-control terrorism. Governments are spending huge amounts of precious capital for the safety and security of air and rail transportation as well as inspections at all sea ports.  The global economic effect is crippling; countries struggle to manage commerce, international trade, business growth, job creation and tourism. The world’s economy is on the brink of collapse.

 

The Global Defense Organization TM (GDO) has been created to be a cost effective multinational elite group that monitors, infiltrates and eliminates terrorist activities within all supporting countries. Known only as Reaper Two-Six, this secret 48 member squadron has quickly earned a reputation for precisely eliminating terrorist threats, in the air and on the ground.

 

Why did China and Columbia oppose the creation of the GDO?  Are they connected to global terrorist cells?  Are they secretly financing the sale of weapons?

 

The Reaper’s greatest challenge is now upon them; infiltrate China and Columbia to discover their real intentions. Through a series of electrifying and heart-stopping missions, the Reapers use their skills and advanced technology to put fear back where it belongs - in the minds of the terrorists, not in the minds of its citizens.

 

The Rise of Global Insurgency kicks off in the highly trained black-ops squadron's fifth year of operations. Showcasing fast-paced action, suspense and drama, along with utilizing state-of-the-art technology, exhilarating combat sequences, believable, hard-edged characters and a fresh, inventive plot, this new military fiction is a must read for fans of the genre.
