How many books would you use?
by Darkmyroad on May.28, 2009, under book reviews
I am currently working with my publisher to determine a quantity. If you were able to get copies of my book FOR FREE, for use in your congregation, district, circuit, etc, how many would you want?
No commitment. This is just an informal poll.

Greetings and welcome to I Trust When Dark My Road. This site is about Christ and His gifts, especially as He gives them to those of us who suffer with mental illnesses such as depression or anxiety. I'm a Lutheran pastor who suffers from clinical depression, and this is where I pose questions about treatments, theological questions, a little humor, and generally discuss the matter of how Christians respond to mental illness.

I am planning on using them in my congregation and getting about a hundred for that purpose.

I would be very interested in having access to 125 books (before August) and another 125 books before the end of the year for use in DOXOLOGY: The Lutheran Center for Spiritual Care and Counsel.
Then, I would love to have about another 50 to use in my clinic, Christian Counseling Services.
Free is such a good price. Thanks very, very much!
Total: 200-ish would be amazingly good.

Probably about 15 for a current men's Bible Study. Men seem to have a harder time accepting that a depressed person shuld be able to just "suck it up" I picture a smaller group study so that areas can be discussed. If you have too many in a class at the same time, quesitons and comments cannot be addressed as well.

I would use it for circle Bible study so I would use at least ten. I feel it is very important as I am on medication for depression and have been for 17 years.

I would say it would be good for a Bible study, but then you'd also want them to keep it and have more if needed, so I would say about a hundred copies or so!

Probably about 25 : for distributing to hurting friends, Care Group members (of our own Care Group), Pastors, Care Group leaders, physicians/nurses I know, neighbors.

I'm thinking around 140:
100 to distribute to congregation right away
15 to take to Circuit Pastors Conference
25 to keep on hand for future needs
