Bible Note: Edb:I like much of what you said. Lots of food for thought. I have a thought, and wonder how you would respond. When I go to any Christian Book store CBD or the small town type, they have such a mish mash of autors that come from such wide range of perspectives. WOF over here and Liberal over here and the consistancy is no where to be found. As we know unless you are up to speed with who is who you can be led astray pretty easy. If a church had it's own book store, with wise leadership that could be a real help to growing Christians. That would be if the church is large enough. If the church is small then a book list would be well worth while, if the person was well grounded to make up such a list. I could see the list being on a back table for people to pick up. However if the church was large enough, hours could be set to not interfer with worship or other services. Just a thought, I came up with to make it more interesting on how to help churches grow Christians more in line with correct theology. I could see no reason this would be considered merchandising, if done in a mannor that does not effect Sunday worship. agape. justme |
