There is something powerful about putting words on paper—something eternal, something transformative. As a pastor, my calling has always been to minister to people, to shepherd their hearts, and to point them to the truth of God’s Word. But in recent years, I’ve realized that ministry doesn’t just happen from the pulpit—it can also happen through the written word.

By God’s grace, I’ve been blessed to publish three books with Pinpoint Publishing: The Divine Handshake, 52 Days of Discipleship, and 40 Days of Spiritual Growth. Additionally, I am currently working on 11 more books that will continue to expand the reach of this ministry and leave an even more remarkable legacy for generations to come.

Each of these books carries a message that will ignite faith, stir hearts, and challenge readers to pursue a deeper walk with Christ. But why do I publish? Three core reasons drive my passion for writing and publishing.

1. To Minister to People with God’s Word, God’s Wisdom, and Stories of My Life

The Word of God is life-changing. Hebrews 4:12 declares, “For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart.” I desire to see lives transformed by that living Word—not just in a moment, but through a lasting impact that leads to discipleship and growth.

I can minister to people I may never meet in person through my books. The wisdom that God has given me, the lessons He has taught me, and the testimonies of my journey are not just for me; they are meant to be shared. In Revelation 12:11, we are reminded that “They triumphed over him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony.”Testimonies build faith. They remind us that God is still moving, healing, delivering, and calling people to Himself.

2. To Establish a Publishing Legacy

I publish because I know my words will outlive me. A sermon preached may be remembered for a season, but a book written can impact generations. Long after I am gone, the truths God has entrusted to me can continue to disciple, equip, and strengthen the body of Christ.

Proverbs 13:22 says, “A good man leaves an inheritance to his children’s children.” While this often refers to financial inheritance, I believe the most significant inheritance I can leave is spiritual wisdom—words that will continue to build faith and shape lives for years to come. The Apostle Paul’s letters are a prime example; though written centuries ago, they still carry power, conviction, and divine revelation. That is my hope for my books—that they will not be momentary but lasting.

This is why I continue to write. The 11 books I am currently working on are part of this legacy, ensuring that the message God has placed in my heart will continue to impact people for generations to come.

3. To Have Another Stream of Income

Ministry is a calling, but it is also a responsibility that requires provision. Paul was a tentmaker (Acts 18:3), and he understood that God provides in multiple ways. My goal is for my books to become a primary income stream so that I can continue serving in ministry without financial strain. I trust that God will use these books as a means of provision, just as He has used other resources to bless His servants throughout history.

Deuteronomy 8:18 reminds us, “But remember the LORD your God, for it is he who gives you the ability to produce wealth, and so confirms his covenant, which he swore to your ancestors, as it is today.” God gives us creative abilities, ideas, and opportunities not just to sustain ourselves but to advance His kingdom. I believe that every book I publish is not just a tool for ministry but also a vehicle of divine provision.

Conclusion

Publishing is more than just putting words on paper—it’s about ministry, legacy, and provision. Every book is an opportunity to sow seeds that will bear fruit for years to come. My prayer is that through these books, lives will be changed, faith will be strengthened, and God will be glorified.

If you are an aspiring author, I encourage you: write the vision, make it plain (Habakkuk 2:2). Your words carry power, and when aligned with God’s truth, they can transform lives. For me, publishing is not just an option—it is a calling, a legacy, and a divine assignment.

May these books—both the ones already published and the 11 more that are on the way—continue to bless, inspire, and challenge all who read them. To God be the glory!
