Nashville Hotel Replaces Bibles with ‘Spiritual Menu’ PDF Print E-mail
Saturday, 05 April 2008

 

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.”

Words To Live By

"If we claim to be without sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness. If we claim we have not sinned, we make Him out to be a liar and His word has no place in our lives." - The Bible: 1 John 1:8-10
