circulation -- edited primarily to continue REPEATEDLY, EVERY
ISSUE, that which I reveal in my present meetings and campaigns.
Its circulation will be limited primarily to top government
and professional people in such countries as Japan, India,
Egypt, Israel, Thailand, Jordan, Indonesia, etc. -- also in
America, Canada, Britain, Europe.
I have just been presented with the first "dummy" edition,
and as we used to say, "It's a smash!" It is simply beautiful
and absolutely TOP QUALITY! Larger in physical size than our
other magazines, more pages, high-quality paper, with fantastic
photography and graphics. (I've taken the liberty of enclosing
a full color print of the first cover -- illustrating a feature
article on Pygmies.)
The title? What could be better than HUMAN POTENTIAL?
Developing our incredible human potential is what the
KINGDOM OF GOD is all about! It is the REASON we are alive
on earth! We are already receiving enthusiastic responses
from some of our friends in the Middle East, the Philippines,
India, Japan, and Thailand. These top people in government,
education, industry, who endorse what I stand for and
proclaim, will be writing articles that will be read by other
world leaders in the new HUMAN POTENTIAL. This alone staggers
the imagination. An editorial policy without precedent in
the entirety of international journalism and publishing! Our
new magazine -- HUMAN POTENTIAL -- will be in a class by
itself! My "personal" articles will provide a spiritual
dimension and biblical UNDERSTANDING, and world leaders will
read it, I assure you! HUMAN POTENTIAL magazine is the real
FOLLOW-UP of my personal visits and meetings. It will perform
a necessary job which the Plain Truth cannot. The Plain Truth
is a mass-circulation magazine of more than THREE MILLION
copies!
The new magazine will be edited for a different audience
and have a different approach. The number of copies will be
limited, for it is an expensive magazine to produce. The
magazine and AICF projects will be financed by paid memberships
in the Foundation, a recommended minimum of $25.00 each, tax-
deductible. HUMAN POTENTIAL will be sent to all Foundation
members.
This method of financing, similar to that of National
Geographic, will allow for subscription growth without attacking
day-to-day radio and television, Plain Truth and Good News
budgets. We will soon begin to actively promote memberships
in the United States, as well as worldwide, regardless of
one's affiliation with us in other respects.
Brethren, I NEED your constant and intensive prayers and
supplications for this whole new phase of the Work, now reaching
many countries worldwide we were never able to reach before.
While HUMAN POTENTIAL iS NOT a magazine just for Church members,
but rather a follow-up of my personal meetings, speeches, and
campaigns around the world, I feel that many, if not most, of
