Now is that a true statement or what? I continues to amaze me that to walk into a “Christian” bookstore you have to literally dig for anything close to truly Christian in content and most of the time you hear the “we will have to order that one for you” when stacks of copies of “The Shack” and “Your Best Life Now” are surrounding you in the store.

I am thankful for sites like Monergismbooks and Westminster’s online bookstore.

As one who loves good books myself I can always see the temptation to read those books when I should be saturated in Scripture. How guilty are we as pastors, teachers and theologians (and laypersons at that) who can quote Piper more than the Bible!
