Hotel Preston in Nashville, Tenn., will replace Bibles with “spiritual menus” in all of its guest rooms, allowing guests to call room service to order their religious book of choice.
The book list includes the Quran, The Book of Mormon, the Torah, books on Scientology and the Bible.
Dr. Albert Mohler Jr., president of the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary and a Focus on the Family board member, wrote on his blog that the growing absence of Bibles from hotel rooms speaks to the secularization, sexualization and extreme sensitivities of the culture.
“The fact is that many persons have come to faith in Jesus Christ by reading a Bible supplied to their hotel room by the Gideons,” he wrote. “Many others have turned to the Bible when in crisis. Some have even decided against suicide when they read from the Gideons Bible.”
