Free
Reading Mike’s recent interview with Seth Godin – especially his comments on “Free” – has me thinking:
Whether they’ve read Godin’s new book or not, people/ministries like John MacArthur and John Piper have studiously read THE book (ummm…the Bible) and they totally get it when it comes to “free” and it is working for them in a truly miraculous, biblical way via their websites (gty.org and desiringgod.org). Their ministries are growing, their reach is expanding, the gospel is advancing in pretty dramatic ways – contrary to what many would’ve thought when it comes to giving away most of your life’s work. That’s right, they give most of their “product” away for free and are thriving.
Hmmm…giving your life away….that sounds like the gospel.
