OMF Literature: Pause. Read. Reflect.


To read or not to read, that is the question. Undoubtedly, no one can dismiss the importance of reading. Whether you read to afford yourself a casual escape from reality or to further hone your intellect, reading is simply a must. There is just about a gazillion reasons why we should read and thanks to OMF Literature, reading becomes all the more entertaining.

OMF Literature takes pride as “a movement of Christians who desire to honor God by depending on the Holy Spirit to achieve excellence in proclaiming the Gospel of Jesus Christ and promoting spiritual growth primarily among Filipinos, living in the Philippines and abroad, through the effective and righteous management of a publishing business. “ Now, with over 300 titles that they have locally developed, or produced as co-editions with their overseas partner-publishers, OMF Literature is touching millions of lives as the largest publisher of Evangelical Christian literature in Asia.

Recently, OMF Literature marks another milestone as it gears itself to conquer the cyberspace. Yes, OMF Literature is going digital. But that doesn't mean OMF Literature would cease to publish printed books. It only means that they are making inspiration available for download. Initially, OMF Literature launches 55 eBooks on Amazon.com with three additional eBooks from their imprint for children's book, Hiyas, with hopes of fully becoming digital soon.

The night of its launch was filled with so much inspiration and camaraderie among peers. I honestly can't remember any dull moment as the event progresses. Spearheaded by Mr. Aleks Tan, the gallery was in full delight, not to mention occasional heavy laughs, thanks to his humorous punchlines on the side. We were also graced by shared moments with multi-awarded author of “What, Me Retire?", Ms. Grace D. Chong; artistic author of “Embracing God's Purpose for My Child and Special Needs,” Ms. Malu Tiongson-Ortiz; seasoned freelance writer and author of “Add Mo Ko As Friend,” Ms. Marlene Legaspi-Munar; columnist and author of “How To Mend A Broken Heart,” Gintong Aklat Awardee, Mr. Nelson Dy; pastor, professor, and bestselling author of “Lovestruck,” Mr. Ronald Molmisa; professor and gifted author of “Going Up?”, Ms. Yay Padua-Olmedo; award-winning author and illustrator of “Porcupirate Plans the Day,” Mr. Robert Magnuson. We were very privileged and humbled to be sharing tables with the distinct authors of OMF Literature, it was a very rewarding event worth experiencing all over again. Next time, pause, read, reflect.
