We Need Help, but Good Things Are Happening
Tue., Mar. 6. 2018 1:48pm EST

J. Jackson, lead singer and lyricist for ApologetiX here.

Some of you haven't received an appeal letter from us since late November. Others got one in early January, when a donor offered matching funds. We got such a good response that we didn't need to mention it again.

Now it's early March, and I'm reminded of what the Egyptians told Joseph in Genesis 47:18: "We will not hide from my lord that our money is all spent."

Once again, the band has some large expenses coming due and is significantly behind in paying me. I don't send these letters otherwise. We can't offer livestock, land, and servitude as the Egyptians did, but we can offer some encouraging things that are going on with ApX:

In the past week or so, I've been contacted by a large Christian radio network about doing an on-air interview next week, another large Christian radio network about possibly playing our parodies on a regular basis, and a popular Christian magazine about doing an article on the band.

Next Monday, 107.1 FM in Norman OK is doing an interview with us. In January, KHCA Angel 95 FM in Manhattan KS launched a weekly ApX radio show (featuring music and interviews) that has since been added by several other stations and also airs on the internet.

On top of that, we've been very busy on a number of other projects you should see and hear soon. Our next single, slated for this weekend, features two bands we've never spoofed before. Our next CD should be available by the end of March. And our new songbook is also well into production.

If you'd like to help us carry on, there are different ways you can do so:

1. Pray
2. Get our singles, CDs, DVDs, USBs, shirts, lapel pins, songbook, etc. at apologetix.com/store
3. Give online: http://www.apologetix.com/store/store-donate.php
4. Give by mail: ApologetiX, 208 Charlemma Dr., Pittsburgh PA 15214

Donations aren't tax deductible, but we still think Zacchaeus and Matthew would approve. Thank you!

Your friend,

J.

J. Jackson
ApologetiX (That Christian Parody Band)

P.S. Please don't feel guilted into giving. Guilt offerings were meant for God (Leviticus 7:1), not Christian parody bands. :) Only give if you want to and are able. If you need help yourself, we'll gladly pray for you and send some free music downloads. To email about that, send your message to j@apologetix.com.
