You can not be a serious Christian without reading serious Christian literature! On April 26th of 2009 we opened our “Pastor’s Picks” book table. This made wonderful biblically based books available those at Trinity for prices as good as if not better than you could find in the books store. Our total sales in the first year were 595 books - but we need to add roughly 200 more books to this number for special orders for groups, for members in going through counseling and other issues that are generally not recorded because they are not on our titles list. The books from the list that look like they are slow to sell are, in actuality, those that have been on our book table only a few weeks. The one thing I want to highlight is that our top 6 sellers all have to do with marriage, training our children in truth, or dealing with family and church relationships! It is no wonder that I don’t recall a week that someone has not discussed how God is working in their family!! To be around biblically centered books and to learn principles of teaching my children the Word of God, will always lead to change. I thank the Lord for Mrs. Dody and so many of our wonderful people that serve at this table every single service. I can’t put it any better than Mrs. Dody, when she sent me this summary:
“What is most exciting is that the number of books sold represents families being helped, marriages being revived, parents learning to parent biblically, individuals applying the Word of God to their finances, and believers hungry to grow in their faith and disciple others along the way. That is a ministry I am thrilled and proud to be a part of.”
Keep reading and we keep growing!
