Ack! My local Bible Bookstore
I went to get Families Where Grace is in Place, and they didn't have it so I put it on order. Don't know if I'm going to go back, though.
They DID have Babywise II, Toddlerwise and SACH. I plan to write a letter, and I'm finding the resources sticky helpful. The problem is, I would like to put my full married name on the letter and Dh is against this. His family owned a Christian bookstore for many years that was in competition with this particular store (also a family owned store although now it is predominant and well respected in the area) and there are apparently some hurt feelings. Dh's family store recently closed, which for me makes this a non-issue. Dh said a letter would be immediately dismissed, a waste of paper to put my name on it. I said, it might be anyway...and I feel like I'm hiding or embarrassed if I use my maiden name or no name at all. If I have a concern, as a customer from eons back (before I was even old enough to date) I should be able to express my concerns in a loving manner. Sadly, I don't know anyone in our area who would be as discouraged by this as I am, who would write to them. I suppose this is a vent more than anything. Why would a Christian Bible Bookstore stock this? I can only assume 1) they have no idea what it's about or how contraversial it is (seems pretty unlikely) or 2) they know what it's about and they either agree or disagree, but they really don't care...as long as it makes $$$$ I am naive, I am silly to think that grace could be valued above profit.
