The book called God's Paper Boy by Nita DeBorde is cited over 35 times in this article. This book is not listed by Google Books. It is sold through Amazon.com, and is listed there as published by "CreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform". That is a self-publishing service owned and operated by Amazon, which lacks professional editorial control. I have found no independent reviews of this book in reliable sources.

DeBorde's previous fictional book Project Lachesis is also self-published by "CreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform". I see no evidence that she is an author with an established reputation for writing biographies.

The newsletter of the Scott Nute Global Ministries says "In August, we published our first book, the biography of my life and ministry—God’s Paperboy. If you would like to purchase copies that can be given as Christmas presents, they can be found on Amazon in both paperback and Kindle e-book." This confirms without a doubt that the source is not independent.

According to WP:RS, "Anyone can create a personal web page or publish their own book and claim to be an expert in a certain field. For that reason, self-published media are largely not acceptable. Self-published books and newsletters, personal pages on social networking sites, tweets, and posts on Internet forums are all examples of self-published media." Accordingly, this source is neither independent nor reliable, and is therefore not acceptable for use on Wikipedia. This and similar self-published sources, and all contentious material cited to those sources, must be removed from the article.
