August 2006Monthly Archive CouragePosted by Dr John King on 27 Aug 2006 | Tagged as: Manhood | Champions are men in whom courage has become visible. It takes courage to face reality, admit need, change, make decisions, and hold convictions. Courage ventures from the path and leads the way. It dares to be different and as a result, expands the circle of human experience.

They will also give me an inside front cover and two more pages to promote all of the resources available to men that we have at International Men’s Network. This mail out will go out to their 60 000 people mailing list and then to the people on our mailing list. Initially about 10 000 and then another 50 000 and then the final 90 000. That is a mailing out to some 310 000 people! If you combine this with the big push in Family Christian Bookstores - what a launch! It has been incredible watching this event unfold, week after week.

Contract Signed with Destiny Image PublishingPosted by Dr John King on 06 Aug 2006 | Tagged as: Guy Thing Book | In the last couple of months I have been talking with Destiny Image about my book It’s a Guy Thing.We exchanged a contract for worldwide distribution a couple of months ago. I haven’t mentioned it because… well… sometimes what is said and done are two different things. But today I was at the corporate offices and met with the team. I saw the new artwork in a flyer going out to bookstores all over the nation. So it is on…. I will get you a copy of the cover as soon as it comes in. I will keep you informed as to what is coming up with the launch over the next couple of months.
