Can I Have Your Bible?
Do you have a spare Bible or three you are willing to donate to Scum of the Earth Church? In particular, I’m looking for translations that are easy to read (like NIV, NLT, etc), especially small(ish) sized.
It’s not uncommon for us meet people who ask for a Bible, but we’ve run out of Bibles people are willing to take. Either they can’t understand the archaic or wonky translation, they can’t afford the space / weight of the mammoth book in their pack (many of them live outside, entirely out of their back-pack), or they don’t want it because it’s just a New Testament (“Why would I just want part of it?” – good question).
We also use Bibles often in small group discussions on Sunday nights, and sometimes it is a challenge to find a Bible for everyone!
If you have a Bible or two you want to donate, send me an email: scumchurchseattle[at]gmail.com - Thanks!
PS. If you live in the Seattle area, would you consider sharing a link to this post on facebook, twitter, email, whatever?
