Glories of Books

Westerns churches are like libraries or bookstores.

They’re for some people. But not all.

For those they’re for, they’re treasure.

When you travel to other towns or cities, you visit them.

You love the smell of books, fresh or musty.

Some may even design entire vacations around visiting their favorite used bookstores or historic libraries.

Yet, these spaces are not for all.

For the non-converts, they’re symbols that communicate “classroom” to the imagination before ever stepping foot in one or tasting the glories held within the books themselves.
