NILES, Mich., June 11 /Christian Newswire/ -- Christian Archives (www.christianarchives.org) recently announced plans to publish a collectible book of sermons. The sermon archive website is currently seeking sermon manuscripts to consider for inclusion in the book.
The collectible book will be available in November, 2009. The proceeds from the sales of the books will be shared with a national Christian non-profit organization. The annual publication will contain 25 inspirational sermons chosen from materials submitted by Pastors world-wide.
"We are reaching out to the Christian community, Churches and Pastors to invite and welcome their participation in this book by submitting the sermon manuscript of their choice," explains Brian Callahan, co-founder Christian Archives. "Our hope is to put together a book that will provide years of inspirational reading."
Christian Archives requests that all materials be submitted as a Word .doc and not exceed 2,500 words. All submissions should include the authors name, short bio, church name, sermon title, email and phone. The file and information should be emailed to sermons@christianarchives.org. The submission deadline is July 31, 2009.
Christian Archives was developed by a small group of Christians who recognized that many inspirational sermons, once given, were essentially lost. Even if recorded or videotaped, these sermons were often saved on tape, CD or even DVD and gathering dust on a shelf somewhere, never to be heard again.
Christian Archives offers a solution to that problem with its free internet based service that allows churches the ability to store and access millions of digital, audio and video sermon files online, at any time.
"If sharing and inspiring through a sermon works well one day a week, then why not make that same sermon available seven days a week?" explains Dallen Wendt, co-founder Christian Archives. "Better yet, why not make that sermon available to any Christian online? That is why we created Christian Archives."
In addition to sermon archiving, Christian Archives also provides a custom web page for church members at no cost. Each custom web page is home to the archives of the specific church. The custom web page makes it easy for churches to seamlessly link their websites to their archives, and back again. If a church does not have a website they can also use their custom web page as their website.
The concept of the book was developed as the demand for online sermons has grown. Asking Pastors for contributions seemed to be a logical way to extend the benefits of Christian Archives to Christians everywhere.
