Episode 187: Jesus Junk -- The Rise & Fall of The Christian Bookstore
Manage episode 297812134 series 1173818
An unofficial but ongoing series on this podcast is "Christian Curiosities," where we reflect and examine Christian trends from the days of yor. These trends permeated Christian communities and usually across denominations, and it was the Christian Bookstore that enabled these curiosities to spread and thrive. If one wanted to put their thumb on the pulse of Christianity in America, all one had to do was visit a Christian Bookstore. But since the advent of the internet, and shopping online, as well as downward trends in Church attendance, the Christian Bookstore is beginning to go extinct (not unlike other brick and mortar companies -- It's a new world out there). Before the Christian Bookstore goes the way of the Dodo, JP and Father Chuck reflect on the Christian Curiosities they themselves used to buy, examine why the Christian Bookstore was such a phenomenon, and how, in the end, they may have served as more of a detriment to Christianity in America.
