Well, it’s not really my new book cover (that’s over here!) but early in 2014, I’ll be re-releasing a revised and expanded edition of my first book, Mad Church Disease: Healing from Ministry Burnout. It will release on its fifth birthday (happy birthday, book!) and it’s insane to think each and every week, I hear from pastors or church leaders and volunteers who are still giving this book out and sharing what it has meant to them. I’m was asked to keynote the Shelby Conference on this topic next June!
Since this book was listed out of print by the publisher and all the rights were reverted back to me, I’m so glad I get to add some content, update some more, and provide not only a book, but study guides, custom health plans, and more.
We are working on the final pieces of it, including the cover. I had a design contest at 99Designs and have narrowed it down to eight finalists. Your vote and comments will help so much. Please hop over to the voting page, cast your vote, and make sure you sign up for the email list that will notify you when Mad Church Disease is available to purchase again. (Hint, if you sign up for the list, you’re gonna get some crazy pre-sell offers and freebies exclusive only to that list!)

Kind of hate seeing this done with a design contest. Most everyone winds up doing a lot of work for nothing. I am a designer myself who is self employed and this approach always puzzles me.
I totally get a designer’s hesitation for spec work. I did design for the better part of 8 years. What I love about 99Designs is they’ve paid out over $1million to designers this month, $63mil overall. It’s voluntary, so you choose the projects and the awards you want to work for. Some people won’t work for less than a Platinum award. Some people don’t care. My hubs is a self-employed videographer and he just did a video on spec and even though he didn’t win, loved the process. So, I guess it’s for some. Not for everyone.
