* Uh-oh: In Touch Ministries Has Taken Legal Action: Long-time friend of Bob Enyart Live, app developer Patrick Franklin, is being taken to trademark court by Charles Stanley's ministry. Patrick's downloadable app, for iPhones, iPods, the iPod Touch, Android, etc., is called the Touch Bible and currently has over 700,000 downloads with each copy including chapter one of Bob Enyart's The Plot. Thanks Patrick! Aside from dedicating a tremendous amount of time and programming talent to pro-life ministry (including by creating the ExceptionsCalculator.com which is used prominently at ProlifeProfiles.com), Patrick programmed the Touch Bible from his hospital bed after doctors diagnosed him with a fatal illness and gave him three years to live. Now Charles Stanley's In Touch Ministries, a Christian organization that Patrick otherwise highly compliments, is asking Patrick to "cease and desist" from offering his Touch Bible and from trademarking his popular app's name. Stay tuned... And check out Patrick's website, ChristianRevolution.net!
