Bible boot camp

"After a study revealed that less than 10 percent of evangelicals were Bible literate, James Dobson's Focus on the Family is desperately taking a two-day multimedia Bible boot camp on the road, selling "truth" for $179 a seat."

You can't learn the Bible in two days any more than you can learn to me a husband or wife, father or mother, disciplined soldier or marathon runner. This stuff takes time and consistency--along with a heart humbled by God and submissive to His will.

But, I suppose in our "gotta have it now with minimal effort" culture, McBible will sell for $179 a seat!

I've got to give Dobson credit. Charging $179 per person to teach them what they thought they already knew.

I'd be happy to give anyone an overview of the Bible for $150. That'll save you a lot of money. And you'll learn some quite unexpected things, guarenteed.
