I'm of the opinion that the
Church should have access to scripturally sound, edifying Christian
literature and that one need not be kept from having a modest Christian
library because of cost. The ministry of TCC e-book blog involves the
provision of quality Christian literature in accurate and accessible
formats for FREE. Many ebooks released today, quite honestly, are
hack-jobs prepared for passively earned profit (i.e., royalties from
online sales). If any of you use e-readers, you've probably had the
experience of purchasing a book only to find that it's riddled with
errors so glaring that a chimpanzee could have corrected some of them
with a one-pass editing. None of the books on TCC e-book blog were
released without extensive checking of the source documents, and
painstaking formatting and editing. This often involved referencing and
old, out-of-print edition to ensure that certain passages were correct,
that the language forms were appropriate, and to verify errors in the
optical character recognition from the source text. What we should have,
then, are a collection of books that exceed the quality and accuracy of
many of the same titles sold by different publishers online.
That doesn't mean that these books can't be without error. If you're
prone to read them, please alert me to any concern for error, no matter
how small. If the concern reveals an actual error, it will be corrected,
and the e-books will be updated. As a reward for your help, I'll even
give you an updated version of the book, also for free! :)
If
you haven't already, please join our e-book blog (using the email entry
on the main page of the ebook blog and the Google connect options to the
right) and direct your friends, family, fellow church members, etc. to
this valuable and free resource.
