I have added a new section to the website for hosting resources. This will help the reader find existing content, such as my sermons, easier. But it is also to host additional content which no longer has a home.

The link can be found in the top menu bar.

When I first began this website, my intention was for it to host all kinds of resources, in particular content (such as Bible studies) which I wrote myself. It soon became clear to me that creating this additional content would be too time consuming to do sustainably. The website then became a blog; and it will primarily remain so.

The reason for this "change" now has a bit of a story. In 2013 I met Michael
Schäfer at an Equip conference. A couple of years ago, he launched a website called Free For All. Here he provided Bible studies which he wrote, but placed in the public domain, making it free and accessible for all. I recently discovered that this website is no longer live. I asked Michael for permission to host these Bible studies to continue having them as free resources, and he agreed.

I feel quite strongly about the matter of copyright, and how Christians make their intellectual property (read: the gospel) available to others. It was exciting to see Michael's initiative, because many pastors, preachers and Bible study leaders cannot afford to pay a premium for good resources. By making it freely available, it helps those people get quality Bible training, and serves as an encouragement as well.

I do hope that these resources will be of benefit to my readers, or others of whom they know who may need something like this. Please share freely!
