Daniel Bush | 6 comments I would like to add a book that I wrote, which is in the GoodReads database, to my Author Profile. I can't figure out how to do that. Here is the book...

Title: Live in Liberty: The Spiritual Message of Galatians

Authors: Daniel Bush & Noel Due

ISBN-10: 1577996291

ISBN-13: 978-1577996293

Publisher: Lexham Press

Publication Date: February 1, 2016

Language: English

Paperback: 352 pages

Description:

A systemic problem plagues the local and global church: we habitually lose the gospel. The gospel has been equated with everything from personal prosperity to laws for virtuous living. But all such perceptions paralyze the mission of the church, which is aimed at finding true abundant and joyful life in Christ.
In Galatians, the Apostle Paul engages in a passionate defense of the gospel. It may be a short book, but the consequences of its teaching are truly enormous. Martin Luther found such joy and peace in its pages that he said, “The Epistle to the Galatians is my epistle. To it I am as it were in wedlock. It is my Katherine”—Luther’s beloved wife.
The critical message of Galatians takes us into the heart of an experience—the enjoyment of God’s presence and everlasting peace—one which sets us free to love and be loved. In Live in Liberty, Daniel Bush and Noel Due bring out the spiritual message of Paul’s words, helping you apply it to your mind and soul so that you may experience the liberating presence of God.

Daniel Bush | 6 comments I am also noticing that GoodReads has the Author Metadata on "Live in Liberty: The Spiritual Message of Galatians" as "Dan Bush," rather than "Daniel Bush." Perhaps this is why it is not showing up in my Author Profile. This metadata issue also needs to be changed. How do I change it?

Thanks,
Daniel Bush

Abcdarian | 26579 comments Moved everything I could find to your profile. Dan Bush and also Daniel J. Bush were used. The author name must be identical to your author profile to correctly connect the book. Your profile, by the way, uses 2 spaces between first and last name (Daniel^^Bush) to differentiate from the existing single-space author. This doesn't affect searches or anything, just book sorting.

The same thing applied to your co-author, some books under Noel Due and some under Noel S. Due. I combined under the more complete name.

Daniel Bush | 6 comments Thank you! You did great.

I am also the Co-editor with "Brannon Ellis" on the book "Confronted by Grace: Meditations of a Theologian" by John Webster. Our names are fully listed on the inside title page of the book. (see look inside feature of http://www.amazon.com/Confronted-Grac...)

It would be great if this book could also be added to my Author Profile.

Thank you,
Daniel Bush

Abcdarian | 26579 comments Unfortunately Goodreads does not keep editor names for single-author books as a rule.

Next time a link to the goodreads listing would made things easier for the librarian.
