Hi Gary, I've been a (very) frequent user of christwords website for many years and stumbling upon this substack today, from a site link, pleases the crap out of me. I am more than happy to donate to show my appreciation.
I want you to know that the website has been a transformative tool for me on my spiritual journey. I have learned and leaned on your work there. I thank you for all the work and the passion with which you do it.
