Missionary John Corey began taking messages on CD to Liberia to encourage the faithful pastors he was discipling there. He eventually replaced the CD's with mp3 players capable of storing hundreds of hours of expository messages. As more pastors became interested, John began requiring them to first read the book of Romans 20 times, then copy it, word for word, into a notebook. Upon completing this task, which was founded on the principles of Deuteronomy 17:18-20, they were presented with the mp3 player.
“When he takes the throne of his kingdom, he is to write for himself on a scroll a copy of this law, taken from that of the Levitical priests. 19 It is to be with him, and he is to read it all the days of his life so that he may learn to revere the Lord his God and follow carefully all the words of this law and these decrees 20 and not consider himself better than his fellow Israelites and turn from the law to the right or to the left. Then he and his descendants will reign a long time over his kingdom in Israel.”
