Amelia Posted December 11, 2006 Posted December 11, 2006 THE GOOD BOOK BUSINESS Why publishers love the Bible. by DANIEL RADOSH The New Yorker 2006-12-18 In a sixth-floor conference room of an office building near Nashville International Airport, Rodney Hatfield’s BlackBerry buzzed with an incoming e-mail: “The Lord placed a vision on our hearts of a skaters’ Bible. We really love the N.K.J.V. and would love to use this version. Who can I talk to regarding this? We hope to pack the study Bible with testimonies from pros, devotions, skating tips, etc.” http://www.newyorker.com/fact/content/articles/061218fa_fact1 Quote <p><span style="color:#0000FF;"><span style="font-weight:bold;"><span style="font-style:italic;">"Do not use harmful words, but only helpful words, the kind that build up and provide what is needed, so that what you say will do good to those who hear you."</span></span> Eph 4:29</span><br><br><img src="http://banners.wunderground.com/weathersticker/gizmotimetemp_both/US/OR/Fairview.gif" alt="Fairview.gif"> Fairview Or</p>
Administrators Gail Posted December 11, 2006 Administrators Posted December 11, 2006 There are SO MANY specialized Bibles now!! The other day we had a customer asking for a FIREMAN'S Bible. Apparently there are those and golfers' Bibles, etc. He said something also about a doctor's Bible. 12-step Bibles, marriage ones, Serendipity (same as 12-step?), Starting point Bibles, readers', students', Faith in Action, etc etc Quote Isaiah 32:17 And the work of righteousness shall be peace; and the effect of righteousness quietness and assurance for ever.
