Christian publishers in general have been a little slow to move with the times. Of course, I realize that the small numbers of books they sell is also a big factor. IVP told me recently they are in the process of converting all their books. PTL!

I’m always crying out for translations into Spanish too, but the fact is that without major marketing efforts only small quantities will be sold. In this part of the world, health and wealth and TV evangelists reign supreme.

I just does so much work to get Bible readers into that context.

Is it possible to find out if and when it will be available in a Kindle format? I live in Latin America and have had to give up having books shipped to me, it’s just too expensive.
