  • Designing your own book can be a significant undertaking. We recommend graphic design training. Also count the cost of how much time it may take you versus using that time in active MTD.
  • The order of the presentation flow is important and new designs should try to maintain the same order (Need, Gospel, Answer to Need, My Vision, Ask, etc)
  • The Reliant logo and mission statement must appear prominently at the About Reliant page.
  • The Here's How You Can Help page may not be changed in language or significantly in design. Use the provided page or image. If you need to adapt the page to a different form factor (page size, etc), contact GCM/ Reliant to ask for raw design files.  Redesigns must be approved by GCM Reliant Communications before being used with donors.
