According to Zondervan Publishers, the Average American owns nine Bibles and is actively in the market for more, while the average third-world village does not own a single Bible.
So, why would Zondervan be so concerned with us buying more Bibles -- unless of course it was so we could donate them. In that case wouldn't the $7 Bibles be better so we could donate more?
Hmmm... good question I might say....
Also, Look who now owns beliefnet, a website that is riddled with new age garbage (like Chicken Soup for th Soul) and other spirituality and has a bit of Biblical Christianity mixed in. I think of it as Oprah meets Barney Fife and Tim LaHaye.
Who do we want feeding our spiritual lives?
