    How’s Your Reading Compare?

    What are you reading these days?

    By Mark Roth on November 26, 2010 at 11:14 am

    Family. Friends. Libraries. Churches. Missionaries. Ministers. Homeschoolers. Schools.

    Maybe they would like to buy materials through our Rod & Staff site.

    And maybe you would like to help them do so.

    By giving them a gift certificate.





    You buy the gift certificate.

    You send them the gift certificate.

    They come to our Rod and Staff site.

    They order.

    They pay with the gift certificate.

    They’re blessed. You’re blessed. We’re blessed.
