No thank you. If you can't even use the word "ministry" without putting it in quotes (and again, you probably know very little of our ministry or its work), I would hate to have you invest any of your funds in sending the books to me. I normally pick them up during General Conference in SLC.

Though most are irrelevant to the form of program employed in mentoring situations (attending lectures in distance learning is a rather silly thing to consider), I would be willing to point all these things out if, however, you would be willing to answer a series of questions yourself. Your answers, and mine, would be posted at the end of the response I wrote to your piece. Would you be willing to do this?
BTW, on a completely unrelated point, what software did you use to access TLG during your studies?

(Acts 20:24) But I do not consider my life of any account
as dear to myself, so that I may finish my course and the
ministry which I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify
solemnly of the gospel of the grace of God.
