I’m writing to let you know how much I enjoy reading your web site.\u00a0 You have so many great and inspiring sermons, articles, and studies.<\/p>\n
We are a small congregation and are currently studying the development of the denominations.\u00a0 We are really concentrating on the Catholic Church and its traditions, etc. You have a tremendous amount of\u00a0Biblical\u00a0information that repudiates mere man-made doctrines.<\/p>\n
With all due respect, I am requesting to see if I may have your permission to utilize some of your material in our studies?<\/p>\n\t
I’m glad you are finding the material here useful. As noted at the bottom of each page on this site, all material is free to be reused for non-commercial purposes and that includes borrowing the information for classes. We are a small congregation too and understand the need. Our only request is that the original authors of the material be acknowledged for their work.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
