Every once in a while, a book sweeps the evangelical world, and everyone and their mother just has to read it. If you don't read it, or you disagree with anything in the book, you've really got some explaining to do.
If you hang out in Christian circles, it would be impossible to keep up with the conversation if you have not devoured these books.
In this case, the Bacon is playing off of the past three evangelical sensations.

Never before have you seen such a devotion to truth, accuracy, might and valor embodied in the written word and occasional picture. We strive for accuracy and integrity in every article. If you did not hear it from us, it's probably true.

We'd like to ask those who comment on our stories to refrain from cheap shots against individuals. The Bacon is about challenging ideas, not slamming other people.
"What a stagnant world it would be if we all just left things that we didn't "like" rather than working to improve ideas, discuss, and debate them." -Bekah Grim

I need to read this book so I can go to God's Warehouse on Northlake and tell them all to S.T.F.U. They all need to R.T.F.M.
Bacon you need to get your facts straight.
the sky is red.
puppy dogs can breathe under water.
automobiles run on smiles and happiness.
...among other ridiculous things
great post bacon!
cracks me up every time.
if you google the words 'I kissed my perfect driven jabez goodbye' the bacon is the first and only thing that pops up.
Clearly this means you hate PBA... and by hating PBA that means you do not hold to Christian values and don't love Jesus...
But seriously - an excellent work of image-manipulating mastery.
Shalom
excuse me for being stupid but I don't get it. Can someone explain?
It's just a combination of all the recent best sellers and movements in the Christian world over the last 10 years or so.
oh bless your heart. I would be happy to explain.
