A Change at The LXX Scrolls

Hello brothers and sisters,

I want to share something with you that I’ve been wrestling with for a while now.

When I started this publication, I followed the standard Substack model: free posts as the main course, with a paid tier offering deeper series and the occasional study. It seemed obvious. It’s what almost everyone does.

And honestly, it’s effective.

But I’ve been increasingly convicted that what I do here, comparing the Masoretic Text and the Septuagint, exploring what the apostles saw when they looked at Scripture, opening up the riches of God’s Word, shouldn’t sit behind a paywall. I’m not running a course. I’m not selling expertise. I’m trying to help fellow believers see something I believe matters deeply, and I want the only barriers to that to be the ones each reader chooses for themselves.

So here’s what’s changing: The LXX Scrolls is going completely free.

Every post. Every series. The Divine Council series that we’re in the middle of. The Walking Through Daniel commentary as it unfolds verse by verse. The Greek word studies. The Tabernacle series down the road. All of it, freely available to anyone who wants to read it. No doors. No gatekeepers. No paywall.

What’s staying the same is more important than what’s changing. My publishing schedule isn’t changing: Verse or chapter posts every Saturday and Wednesdays alternating between Greek word studies and longer series installments. The quality, depth, and care that goes into each post stays exactly where it’s been. If anything, I’m more committed than ever, because freeing the work from the paywall means I’m writing for everyone who shows up.

A few things you might be wondering about

Are the ebooks and audiobooks still for sale?

Yes. The books I publish through Amazon (and elsewhere) under the Two Witnesses, One Truth series are a separate thing. They’re polished, curated products designed to live on your digital shelf for years to come. A Substack post is a teaching. A book is a product. The teaching here is free. The books are a growing resource for those who prefer that format as well as a way to sustain this work, and they remain available for readers who want a permanent, organized, easily navigable version they can mark up and return to.

Can I still support this publication if I want to?

Absolutely. Substack has a built-in paid subscription (in this case a recurring support rather than paying for access or a product, and I’ll keep that option open for anyone who feels called to partner with this work financially. It’s not a subscription to anything extra anymore, since everything is free. It’s patronage, plain and simple. You’re not buying access. You’re helping me keep writing. I’m grateful for every reader who participates in that way, but there’s zero pressure or expectation. The work is the work, whether you read freely or support it.

What about current paid subscribers?

I’ve reached out to each of you personally by email/Substack message. You signed up under the old model and I want to honor that. If you haven’t seen my message, you might need to check your junk mail.

Why now

I don’t have a dramatic story here. No moment of crisis. No vision in the night.

What I have is a conviction that wouldn’t leave me alone. It came from an unexpected source: a creator whose work I don’t even particularly resonate with, who mentioned in passing that he keeps his writing freely accessible because teaching about Jesus should be free.

That line lodged in my head and stayed there for weeks. I prayed about it. I tried to talk myself out of it. I worked through the financial implications and the practical questions. And I kept coming back to the same place: this is the right call for this publication.

I don’t know exactly what this means for the future of The LXX Scrolls financially. The ebook catalog is real and growing, and the pledge option is there for readers who want to partner with the work. Beyond that, I’m trusting that since the Lord called me to this, He’ll provide the means to keep doing it. So far He’s provided beyond my wildest dreams.

Thank you for reading. Thank you for being part of this. The scrolls are open.

In His glorious name,
Kevin
