My mother-in-law owned a Christian bookstore and retired. She sold the store to someone else and it closed some years ago. Her experience has taught me that a Christian bookstore is more ministry than business.<BR/><BR/>I get my books mostly from Amazon. When I am in a Barnes & Noble or Borders, I peruse the Christianity section and might buy something.<BR/><BR/>I generally don't buy "Christian trinkets." I suppose I might if there was a place locally. <BR/><BR/>Amy, I wanted to let you know that I listed your site as an award recipient on my blog. I really enjoy Faith 'n Fiction Saturdays and marvel how you are able to come up with interesting questions every week.Lynn Squirehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17493660128797850584noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11303971.post-61945915762809762442009-03-23T05:51:00.000-07:002009-03-23T05:51:00.000-07:00Hi Amy.

I was so upset. I just loved going there and spending an hour or two looking at the beautiful new Bibles and all the other books. It's very sad that they weren't able to stay open.Darlenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15387389557243960084noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11303971.post-25598574134327654452009-03-21T08:02:00.000-07:002009-03-21T08:02:00.000-07:00Personally, I stick with amazon.com for my Christi...Personally, I stick with amazon.com for my Christian books. I find most Christian bookstores to be overpriced, and sometimes it feels so fake and commercial, and I am uncomfortable with marketing my faith.Kaciehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06374573594800663980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11303971.post-78191243544439023272009-03-21T07:16:00.000-07:002009-03-21T07:16:00.000-07:00Thanks Amy for doing this; I'm sure it gets hard t...Thanks Amy for doing this; I'm sure it gets hard to think up new questions every week.RAnnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04102249990885174107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11303971.post-59826203351799658002009-03-21T05:33:00.000-07:002009-03-21T05:33:00.000-07:00Thanks for hosting, Amy.
