I find the resources that are offered of great value and a definite time saver. That is why I purchased a subscription as opposed to purchasing individual resources.

If Bruce is finding it expensive for a download - and it is - spare a thought for us pastors who do not live in the US where our currencies are weak against the US dollar. Perhaps you would sell far more articles if prices were more affordable.

I too would love to read these articles, but cannot see spending more than $5 a piece to do so and even that would be too high.
