Your work is well worth supporting. My suggestion would be to limit your posts to once a day rather than many times a day. My inbox is already very full and I can't take it all in anyway when you send several in one day.
Thank you so much for your support — it means the world to me! And I hear you on the feedback. I’ll definitely work on pacing the posts better to make sure they’re more manageable. Grateful for your honesty and encouragement!
Several people have mentioned burnout. Burnout comes when we do things in our own strength. If a person is given a task to do by the Lord, done as unto His glory, the physical, emotional, spiritual strength will come from the Father in heaven. Moses did the work of 70 men. I too once carried an load of several ministries at the same time my young working husband was sick, homeschooling my children and helping care for my ailing mil. But God. Only by His hand it happened. I distinctly remember the day that season was over and I felt His strength leave me. Our family will be praying for yours as you navigate this decision and seek the Lord’s strength. I will talk with my hubbie about coming alongside of you as we’re able. Our whole home is blessed by your passion and zeal for our Savior. I miss your kind of “talk”. Your preaching. We need more of it. We all said we wish we could go to church with your family. In heaven. 🙏🏼
Ps: I do have a hard time keeping up with all the posts bc I can’t be online all day. I go looking for posts in my downtime at night. But…if the Lord puts something on your heart, heed His prompt. It may only be one person — the one who needs it most — who sees it. He sees and He knows and that’s enough.
Exactly! That’s how I see it. I can see the strength that God is giving you, the words He’s putting in your mouth/pen. He supplies the strength and you go. Keep on keeping on. God’s mission is life.
Please acknowledge my previous message to you concerning your $10 “kit” to overcome anger!! I wish to to help further your valuable ministry, as well, by paying extra!!! Roy Peterson
I contributed early this morning and shortly received a call from the fraud division of my credit card, asking me to authenticate. I was surprised that rather than my contribution going to The Bible Man, it went to coff-ee. But I just want to make sure you received my contribution.
Thank you for sharing your heart! I've been hit in the gut many times reading and praying over your posts! ☺️ ( ✨Thank you! 🌿) From reading the comments, that's why most are ready and willing to seek Father's truths and apply new truths that transform our lives to be more inline with our LORD and Savior!
I do chime in with the~ one post a day principle. Your heart has been pouring out it's fullness of Father's Words from your soul and your pen has many places to poke! This is not limiting your Holy Spirit to one a day everyday...you have freedom in Christ! But until the appropriate finances come in, working two jobs is time consuming. Time and physical and emotional also! We adore your love for your family and would not want you to be overtaxed with undue pressures. I'll join in the family requesting Father's clear direction and wisdom leading you. Keep listening and we are hear to spur ya on! 🙏🌿🔥🌿
Your words are a balm to my soul, sister. 'As iron sharpeneth iron; so a man sharpeneth the countenance of his friend.' Proverbs 27:17. Your counsel about pacing is wisdom straight from above. Walking this path together, strengthened by your prayers. Grateful beyond measure for your support.
I have monetarily subscribed. I agree with Philip (below my post). One topic/subject/post per day is enough to marinate and eventually digest. Fulfilling your calling and ruining your health are two different things. You fell God called you to this task of posting. You're doing a great job, but (if you will heed without taking offense), you are doing your wife and family a disservice (in my opinion). What's happened to many is destined to happen to you. You're gonna burn out eventually, My Friend! Talk about a load on your dear wife and family! Tragic is an understatement! So, I second Philip's advice ... and we'll all better benefit from it - including you and your family. You're doing too good of a work to let overload and burnout happen. (Smile)
Thank you for your subscription and concern. I appreciate your heart behind this message. The Lord has given me both a calling and the strength to fulfill it at this season's pace. As Paul wrote in Philippians 4:13, 'I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.'My family and I prayerfully consider our ministry boundaries together. While I value your perspective, please know that we're walking this path with eyes wide open, seeking wisdom daily. The burden feels light when it's truly from Him (Matthew 11:30).May God bless you for caring enough to share your thoughts.
I can only contribute my prayers but they are heard by God.
May you and your family be richly blessed in all aspects of your life. May you know the joy and peace that God gives to you as you share the words the Holy Spirit gives to you so you can share them with us. We are hungry for real spiritual words and meaningful discussions on the truth of Christ centered living.
Thank you for your prayers - they reach heaven's throne! Your encouragement strengthens my hands for this work. As we hunger for Christ-centered truth together, may His peace that passes understanding fill your heart. Your support means more than you know. (Philippians 4:7)
Crystal - your prayers are the greatest gift. They reach higher than dollars ever could. "The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much" (James 5:16). Thank you for standing with this ministry in the way that truly matters most.
Sir, I have prayed as to your request; and I, too, will provide financially as able, on a regular (monthly) basis. Please see, however, my comments to you (10-12 days ago, from pd subscriber, Michael Valentine). I then said - as have Donnie and Phillip in this string of comments - that you are putting too much upon yourself. Continue in the Word, continue teaching, educating, directing, counseling into the lives of fellow believers in Christ. But, you are not a one-man show. Complement the work and word of others. If your love of the Lord remains firm and your desire to inspire remains strong and you don't stray or veer - we'll still be here for one piece a day. Unburden yourself but don't dilute. You have my email address. Pls send me your name and postal mailing address. We'll do this the old fashioned way - a personal check in the mail monthly supplemented by prayer daily.
Michael - Your prayers and monthly support humble me deeply. I hear your counsel on pace with an open heart. "In the multitude of counsellors there is safety" (Prov 11:14). Your partnership strengthens this work immeasurably. Thank you, brother.
Roy - Thank you for your generous heart! Unfortunately, Substack doesn't allow me to adjust individual charges like that. Your monthly support is already a blessing. If you'd like to purchase the anger guide separately, that would need to be a different transaction. Your faithful $5 monthly is deeply appreciated, brother. "Every man according as he purposeth in his heart" (2 Cor 9:7).
Billy - thank you, brother. Your prayers and support strengthen this work more than you know. "Two are better than one...for if they fall, the one will lift up his fellow" (Ecclesiastes 4:9-10). Standing firm together in His truth.
Your work is well worth supporting. My suggestion would be to limit your posts to once a day rather than many times a day. My inbox is already very full and I can't take it all in anyway when you send several in one day.

Prayers and donation coming your way brother! Keep up the good fight ✊
Thanks, Mark I really appreciate your encouragement and support

I hear you on the 3-post schedule—it's been my rhythm for a year now.
Appreciate the encouragement , sister.
Truth is, when God assigns the work, He supplies the strength for it.
Every post I write is aimed at the brother or sister who needs it that day, even if it's just one person .
I'm watching and praying about scaling back, but until I feel that clear direction, I'll keep showing up where He's called me.
Your prayers mean more than you know. This isn't just content—it's a mission He's placed on my heart.
Thank you for walking alongside us in this.
Exactly! That’s how I see it. I can see the strength that God is giving you, the words He’s putting in your mouth/pen. He supplies the strength and you go. Keep on keeping on. God’s mission is life.

Sorry, didn’t see p
Didn’t see previous answer…please email me separately with instructions on how to purchase your anger guide
I contributed early this morning and shortly received a call from the fraud division of my credit card, asking me to authenticate. I was surprised that rather than my contribution going to The Bible Man, it went to coff-ee. But I just want to make sure you received my contribution.
I don’t see anything from you, Lois. But God Bless you and your willingness

Already a subscriber, can't afford to do more but will be praying my brother.
Crystal - your prayers are the greatest gift. They reach higher than dollars ever could. "The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much" (James 5:16). Thank you for standing with this ministry in the way that truly matters most.

Please note my request of several days ago (in my email answer to your teaching on overcoming anger)..
I would like to buy it…
Instead of $10…take $20 the same acct you get my $5 from every month!!
Roy - Thank you for your generous heart! Unfortunately, Substack doesn't allow me to adjust individual charges like that. Your monthly support is already a blessing. If you'd like to purchase the anger guide separately, that would need to be a different transaction. Your faithful $5 monthly is deeply appreciated, brother. "Every man according as he purposeth in his heart" (2 Cor 9:7).
How do I do that, sir??
You’ve got to go to my Ko-fi store the link is in my bio. The bookstore is separate from my Substack
Prayers and support
Billy - thank you, brother. Your prayers and support strengthen this work more than you know. "Two are better than one...for if they fall, the one will lift up his fellow" (Ecclesiastes 4:9-10). Standing firm together in His truth.
