"This guide is a fantastic resource for all of my students. Coming from someone who is easily frustrated with word processing programs, this not only quickly guided me through the necessary steps to set-up my papers and sermons, but it also put me at ease while doing it. Highly recommend it!" ~ Dr. Dave Tillstrom
