First book published overseas

Last week I received a copy of The Bivocational Pastor in Portuguese that is being published in Brazil. I had been told a couple of years ago that a contract had been signed for this book to be published there, but other overseas publishers had signed contracts to publish some of my books and had not followed through. This publisher did, and I couldn't be happier. It shows that bivocational ministry is not just happening in the US but is occurring around the world. In fact, I would guess it is even more common overseas, and it probably enjoys greater acceptance than it often does in the US. It is my prayer that this book will be a blessing and encouragement to the bivocational ministers serving in Brazil.
