Christian Scoop, www.ChristianScoop.com - YOUR scoop on Christians and media

Volume 2, Issue 10
October 2003

***********SITE NEWS***********

This month we uploaded 38 new book reviews to the site. You can see the reviews that were uploaded for the month at http://www.t4jlibrary.com/reviews.htm

There were a few interviews and additional reviews added this month as well, so don't forget to check those out!

The redesign is still only a dream. We are praying for help in getting this done soon. Please continue to pray as our volunteers try to find time to work on things and submit ideas.

Amazon links are still being added - it is an extremely slow proces, especially with the amount of new reviews constantly being added. Bear with us until we get them all added. Be sure to help support this ministry by shopping through our links at Amazon. We also added some links to purchase videos via Vision Video where we have another affiliate program now set up to help fund the ministry.

Up to date news and info on Christians in media is sent out to Media Scoop each week. This list receives news on writings, music, television, etc. To join send a blank email to MediaScoop-subscribe@yahoogroups.com.

You can also donate money directly by visiting PayPal and sending money to info@teens4jesus.org. A link has now been added to the index page of the site as well. You can see it by visiting http://www.t4jlibrary.com. We need all of the support we can get, no matter how small it may seem.

*********** Book Reviews List **********

This month we saw 38 new reviews added. As usual we have a ton more to add and more books on the way! More reviews will be added this next month!

We are trying to add more secular books as well. Though the site is intended for a Christian audience we don't expect Christians to limit thier entertainment ONLY to Christian products. So we are trying to branch out beyond the Christian books to begin including other books and media as well.

Please help us by submitting your own reviews. Simply follow the links at the bottom of each page.
