A Book for All Times?
I got a good laugh out of this and thought you might as well. A Christian bookstore owner from upstate Wisconsin sent me the following email:
By the way, I’ve been meaning to share something I thought you might be blessed by (or at least get a kick out of it). We’ve been stocking your books in our store and recommend He Loves Me! whenever we get the chance. My wife & I were talking the other day about the degree to which we have come to recommend He Loves Me! When we first started to carry it, we would try to get a feel for each customer, and if they seemed to be looking for something specifically in the realm of your book. Then the scope seemed to naturallly get bigger and bigger…
“Hi, I’m looking for something that might help me understand the love of God better.” …”Well, allow me to recommend ‘“He Loves Me!”
“Yes… I’m looking for something to help me in my Christian Walk” …”Have you heard of He Loves Me!?”
“Hello, I’m looking for a book to help me with Holiness” …”Take a look at He Loves Me!”
“Yeah, do you have any good books for Women?” …”I’d recommend He Loves Me!”
“What would be a good Men’s book?” …”Check out He Loves Me!‘”
“Have a good marriage book?” …”Yep. He Loves Me!”
“Do you have any books to help me my finances?” …”Of course we do…it’s called He Loves Me!”
“Any books which would help me organize my time better?” …”He Loves Me!”
“Do any of your books tell me if my pet fluffy will be in Heaven?” …”Yes, I think that’s addressed in He Loves Me!”
“How about a book on a better way to change diapers?”…”You should try, He Loves Me!”
“Hi…I’m looking for a book to…oh wait, let me guess, you’d recommend He Loves Me!, right?” … “Um, well, yes.”Of course this is an exaggeration, but I think you get the point. Your book is also the #1 book we give away. So many have already been blessed by it through our tiny little shop. Just thought you should know.
