Let's not kid ourselves. Many people do not spend time in God's Word as they should, nor do they take heed. They'd rather buy a book that will tell them some of the same things that the bible is saying, only that it's being experienced in today's society - and that's what gets their attention.
That's why the church is called a spiritual hospital. Don't get me wrong, I am not want to tackle this project hoping that will solve the problem and that people will listen. Nor am I trying to take anything from God's Word. I really want to reach the newly saved so that they won't be in for a shock if they decide to start going to church or to give their lives to Christ. I want to let them know what others are experiencing and that they do need to keep their eyes on God ONLY. If I can bring out that what is in God's Word is actually happening RIGHT NOW, then hopefully that will get them to go to God's Word for counsel.
For their will be a time whem they will not put up with sound doctrine, but according to their own lust, theu will heap up for themselves teachers, tickling their ears, 2 Timothy 4:3
What's the reason that you purchase books? Well that's probably the same reason why others would.

I attend a Christian non-denomination church in the state of Georgia. I not only see this in my church, but in a lot of churches. People are complaining all of the time about the cliques, unfair treatments, too many focusing on pleasing man and not God, no deliverance, building larger cathedrals, focusing on what they want to accomplish only, and the list goes on and on.
L. Ron Hubbard once said, "Writing for a penny a word is rediculous. if a man really wanted to make a million dollars, the best wa would be to start his own religion." While our modern day evengelists have not started their own religion, they have unquestionably improved on Hubbard's idea. Capitalizing on Christianity has proved to be far more luicrative than starting a new religion.
Church use to be a place where you went to fellowship, receive the Word, and give God the praises that He deserves. Now it seems more like a business.

Hello Everyone,
God has placed on my heart to write a book that will touch on some harsh issues. Some of the topics will be unhealthy relationships, people playing church, cliques within the church, the church letting the world creep in, people capitalizing on the ministry, hurting people and their issues not being resolved, having a heart for God and not for man, man pleasers, and many other topics.
We have enough power through God to remove all of the weaknesses and to pull the world into our world, and not bring the world into the church. Many of our churches have been run over by a mack truck. The magnitude of issues are getting worse, creating stress disorders.
I want this book to speak on real life issues that we each face in our Christian walk. I would like to know what you have been faced with within your spiritual life or your church, and I would like to use some situations (leaving names out) and address them in my book in hopes that there will be some healing and deliverance. Also it may wake leadership up to step up to the plate in addressing these issues.
Acknowledgements and credits will be noted to Christian Unite, but no names will be mentioned.
IT'S TIME OUT FOR PLAYING!!! Let's help one another to get through and make the adjust. As God is not pleased.
