Following Sales


Tonight I took a little tour through Amazon sales rankings and noted that of my books that are still in print, my best-seller on Amazon is $5 Youth Ministry. Perhaps the book speaks to the time in which we now live, but evidently there are youth leaders out there who either like the title or who are intrigued by the idea of doing youth work on a $5 budget. Many can attest to this.

Perhaps I should write a series of these books. Titles that come to mind:

$5 Automobiles: How to keep a fat piece of Ford & GM crap running on bailing wire and duct tape.

$5 Wedding Anniversary: How to make your wife think you're spending big bucks when you're actually spending your anniversary money on 40-lb bags of salt for the water softener and other household staples.

$5 Teenagers: How to get more out of your teenager in terms of household chores, lawn mowing, and freezer defrosting without losing your sanity.

$5 Food Bill: How you can use Slim Jims, Jiffy Cornbread Mix, and a $1 box of macaroni to prepare fourteen meals for your family each week.

$5 Entertainment: How to use DVD rentals, bubble gum, and black licorice whips for all of your entertainment needs AND LOSE ten pounds per week while watching 20+ hours of TV per day.
