Still in the work. Serving now in Reynosa Mexico. I'm looking for someone to sort through, and then to write about things, that I have posted on my site. I have much more on the private side of my life that I would like interwoven into the story. Many trials and seemingly failures yet, "The Lord, is Lord!" In essence, what I'm asking, is that I would like for an experience writer to take a look at my site and brouse through it. And I'm sure, one will see that there is a whole other -new side to the story,- yet untold, in regards to this story, of a reluctant missionary, continuing in the face of a Chrsitian public, that is unaware, of the calling that is to each, that say they are a Christian. The cross of self denial actuated in lifes everday problems. I would like for the general Christian public to read. ... As one reads the Bible, the Lord deemed it necessary to include some horrendous actions by the Father's of the faith. Why? to discourage future Christians? No! To show of man's failures his futile attemps- at going it alone- in life's journey. It seems that this site's audience is small, so, if you would pass this request along, to others- that are also as yourselves- real, objective, writers. I would appreciate it. This is just a story of one "Called Of The Lord." a missionary. Thanks and blessings Sincerely Norm normanoetker.spaces.live.com normanoetker@hotmail.com Hi my name is Norman Oetker, I’m a Cristian missionary, 63 years old. Still in the work.

I’m looking for someone to sort through, and then to write about things, that I have posted on my site.

I have much more on the private side of my life that I would like interwoven into the story. Many trials and seemingly failures yet, “The Lord, is Lord!”

In essence, what I’m asking, is that I would like for an experience writer to take a look at my site and brouse through it.

And I’m sure, one will see that there is a whole other -new side to the story,- yet untold, in regards to this story, of a reluctant missionary, continuing in the face of a Chrsitian public, that is unaware, of the calling that is to each, that say they are a Christian.

The cross of self denial actuated in lifes everday problems.

I would like for the general Christian public to read.

To show of man’s failures his futile attemps- at going it alone- in life’s journey.

I often want to just tell God, hey we did the book together, I need your help to get it out there - but what I am really deep down asking HIm to do is sell a few hundred copies for me to make my life easier. I've discovered that writing and creating the book was easy compared to the marketing and selling of it. I enjoy selling it, but it ican be exhausting on line and off. Constanly doing book signings, blogging, tweeting to who knows who out there. My book is a children's picture book with a divine message that God worked years on getting me to learn. I have a second one and wish I had more time to work on it amongst selling the first book plus working a fulltime job at designing books for a seperate publisher and marketing and selling other Christian books through christian book fairs. I guess the one thing I've learned with being a Christian author goes with your point #4. Just because I wrote the story God gave me and he provided the means for me to have it published,- I am not done. my job has only begun in geting others to read and grow from it.

I loved the article. As a new author my biggest concern when writing my book, "Through the Eyes of Abuse" (Release June 09') was overwhelming the readers with scripture after scripture and not addressing the importance of why God first of all wanted me to share my life story. It is so vitally important that whatever genre we write in, we allow ourselves to feel the hearts and desires of our readers remembering the message is for them. Wow, Lisa. I loved the article.
