Through the years Brennan's Pen has grown substantially. Directly and indirectly, with it I minister to hundreds of pastors, missionaries, professors, Bible college students, and local church leaders around the world. Whether it is a brief selection from a book I have been reading, or a blog article I have written, an audio sermon I have preached, or a personal interaction with a reader, I send out nearly 15,000 emails a month. Those emails contain completely free content. In addition, each year I offer a select number of online classes via the Zoom platform. These classes teach in-depth subjects, and I charge nothing for them.
The
problem that has arisen as this ministry has grown is simple. Providing
this much free content on this wide of a scale has begun to cost me
more and more time and money. I view this as a ministry, not a
money-making opportunity. I have never charged for any of it. I am not a
life coach or church consultant; I am a servant. But the cost of
providing such a ministry to so many people is a growing one. If you see value in a ministry to local church leaders
like this, and you would be willing to help me bear the cost of doing so
I would be grateful for your support.
If any of this interests you - supporting Brennan's Pen as it ministers to local church leaders, and/or receiving access to the quotes or sermon files - I would simply ask you to consider signing up for a monthly subscription. I am not asking for a certain amount, though I do send a gift to each person who subscribes at the $5 level. What I do ask to you to decide is how valuable you think this is and support it at that level. Patreon is a widely reputable organization, and your financial information will be kept secure. To join simply click the orange "Become a patron" button above. It will take you to my Patreon page where you can sign up by clicking the same button there.
To the sixty or so of you who currently support Brennan's Pen, my warmest gratitude. To all of you, thank you for your consideration.
Tom Brennan
