Hi Duncan
Thanks for you comment.
The reason why we are using the text format is that research shows it has an instant personal delivery effect on those who receive it. We also noticed that people loved receiving the lenten texts on their mobiles. Not everyone has instant access to a computer in the morning. There are more mobiles to hand than computers. We are also seeking to develop more uses for mobile technology to support discipleship.

why don’t you send the challenges by email to save the telephone costs?

Only that cuts me out of the circle… Please keep up alternative transmission paths. I usually do not have (my wife’s) mobile available, and even if the service worked outwith the UK, cost would be prohibitive, I should think.
Therefore, please offer emailing as well - mind you, I am not asking for faxing, letters, or drums, messenger pigeons…
