distracting noises everywhere

yesterday, I felt a little sad when I walked into a bookstore.

how is it that the religion section of one of the largest bookstore in singapore, is filled with books that denies His existence, persecutes Him, and blasphemes His name? I wanted to look for an author that is true to Him, and yet I found none (before you jump to conclusion, allow me to clarify that I gave up after three shelves and there were more). if somebody walks into that section wanting to look for answers, it seems that the battle is already lost even before it started.

hence, I decided to not look elsewhere, not listen to what others tell me first. but place my eyes on His word with a sincere and humble heart to seek, and He will naturally lead me to the answers when it's my time.

heyys, yea if you want to look for Christian books, the regular bookstores don't have a very good selection.

if you still want, you can try:
1. Acts bookstore at china square central
see http://www.actslifestyle.com/contactus.htm for location map

2. SKS at Tan Boon Liat Building (walking distance from Outram MRT station)
http://www.sksbooks.com/pages/about

3. Tecman at Bras Basah
see http://www.tecman.com.sg/Enquiry.html for location map/directions

4. Campus Crusade Asia Limited – Mass Media
1 Lorong 2 Toa Payoh
#01-02 Yellow Pages Building Singapore 319637


these are the 4 main bookstores that i go to. there are also smaller ones like Mt Zion, Trumpet Praise, Baptist Bookstore, Crest and so on. Churches also usually have a book table.

if you are looking for screwtape letters, i can lend you if i can dig mine up. or else help you lookout when i next visit a bookstore, maybe in about 2 weeks or so.
