Copyright Notice

Enjoy the site;  remember that everything is copyrighted (including this blather) - but permission is freely granted to use any of the lessons for any non-profit Christian purpose.  If you decide to steal them outright for your own use, a mail note (see "Contact Us" above) would be appreciated..  (Isn't this a pain?  But you never know who's out there).

Speaking of copyrights, we are obliged to include the following:

Scripture taken from the Holy Bible, NEW INTERNATIONAL VERSION®. Copyright © 1973, 1978, 1984 International Bible Society. All rights reserved throughout the world. Used by permission of International Bible Society.

And for more recent lessons, Scripture taken from NEW AMERICAN STANDARD BIBLE®.  Copyright  1960, 1962, 1963, 1968, 1971 The Lockman Foundation. 

(Unless otherwise noted, all Bible quotations are taken from the NIV.  In case you're wondering, that's the old, gender-inaccurate, politically incorrect NIV.  When the new, politically correct, "gender accurate" version hits the streets, we will not be using it.  The idea that men and women are interchangeable parts is nowhere reflected in Scripture - unless the Scripture is bent to fit the arrogant political theory of the day.)

Boondocks (CD Available)

For those of you who are in Christian ministry (paid or not), and who are stuck in the boondocks (defined as dial up modem line) it is possible to get a CD of most of the web site.  Please send us a mail note  telling about your work;  give us a valid shipping address and we'll get it to you as soon as we can.  (The "we" in this instance includes the United States Postal Service, for whom the rest of us take no responsibility).
