What people are saying about LittWorld 2009
“My heart is still full as I ponder what took place last week in Kenya. I don’t think I’ll ever forget the experience. The time with that sharp group will certainly re-shape my thinking about global publishing. One of my key takeaways is an overwhelming sense of being part of something much bigger than simply what we see in the US.”
~Greg Thornton, Moody Publishers, USA
“The workshops were focused on Creating a sustainable and productive team, Copy Editing for impact, How to establish writing course in a school setting, Writing with a Christian worldview, Teaching writing and Writing bible study guides. The general sessions like ‘Publishing: the Next Twenty Years’, ‘Pursuing Excellence in Publishing and Writing' were very useful for our publishing ministry in Sri Lanka.”
~Caleb Karnakumar, Lanka Bible College, Sri Lanka
“I wrote my first book and started the second one in April not because I like writing [but because] I considered it my duty. At Littworld the Lord changed my perspective. [In a workshop] I came to understand the truth that writing is indeed a ministry; a service to the Lord. [T]he Lord spoke to me in a new way saying: I have called you not to be a missionary who do[es] only church planting ministry but a missionary who also do[es] writing. I responded to Him committing myself to write more intentionally as my service to the Lord. Now I would say: ‘I enjoy writing. LittWorld in Nairobi made me so.’”
~Ria Zebua, author, the Philippines
“It was a great pleasure to me to meet other people from all over the world involving in this ministry as it was my first time to participate in such conference. It was an atmosphere of sharing experiences in what God has called us to do, “proclaiming God’s word to God’s people.”
~Aloys Bigirimana, publisher, Burundi-Central Africa
