I would like very much to encourage you to support a wonderful local bookstore here in San Antonio. I love Viva. For two years I wrote sermons and other things at the little table upstairs, right by the old desk that no one ever uses and very close to the rack of clerical shirts where I first saw the denim priest shirt that I now own. I was there so often that people sometimes thought I was an employee and would ask me questions. Sometimes I would pretend to be an employee and help them find their book.

If you plan on purchasing a copy of my book, I thank you and say, “Why not buy it at Viva?” Amazon.com has all the business they can handle anyway. If you click the link below the cover, you’ll be taken to the Viva website where you can purchase "RealLivePreacher.com." If you buy through Viva, I'll be happy to sign a copy if you like. Please be aware that if you ask for a signed copy, it might take a few days longer to ship it to you.
