Hotel Bible
Instead of spending $10,000 to swim in hotel rooms or $25,000 to stare at 22-carat gold chandeliers, why not spend less on hotel rooms and donate the money you save to Bibles?
I'm not talking about Gideon International's hotel Bible program. Launched in 1908, Gideon's hotel Bible program has been and continues to be immensely successful. Thanks to their hotel Bible program, many if not most hotel rooms in the free world now have a Bible, which is great.
While Gideon's hotel Bible program should continue to be supported, so should those who deliver Bibles to Communist and other countries that ban Bibles but where the underground Christians desperately need Bibles.
For $1000, 1000 Bibles can be delivered to such Christians, and for every Bible delivered, five new people on average come to believe in Jesus.
Please think about this. After all, do you really need a hotel suite? If so, great hotel suites abound for under $1,000. If not, $200 will get you a perfectly nice hotel room.
Better yet, instead of a hotel, why not stay at a family-run bed and breakfast for $100? You'll not only save money but also enjoy a more memorable stay since people, not rooms, are remembered, and hostesses are easier to remember than hotel concierges.
