Dear All,

Aloha from Hawaii and the islands!

The feature article in this DITC e-Newletter edition is "Master List Of Cult, New Age, Pro-Homosexual And Other Non-Christian Books Being Sold In Christian Bookstores" compiled by Bud Press, April 24, 2004.  Some bookstores are responding to Bud Press on this issue, but others are not.  We ask for your prayers as this effort to clean up Christian Bookstores continues.  This resource list is being sent out so that you can ask your local walk-in Christian bookstore if they are carrying these books and urge them to remove them.

To the Reader: The following is a Master List of Heretical, Cultic, New Age Movement and Pro-Gay/Homosexual authors/books found advertised and promoted within numerous, major online Christian bookstores. While special care has been taken to provide current and accurate information, the reader is encouraged to check and verify the names prior to their removal.

While the "Pro-Gay/Homosexual" list contains authors who are homosexual, it does not mean that all of the authors are homosexual.

Certainly, this list is not confined to just on-line Christian bookstores. It may be applied to walk-in Christian bookstores as well.

For your convenience, the list is arranged in alphabetical order and in a single line. Information about the authors and books may be located by conducting a Google Search on the author's names or the "Description" section of your online bookstore.

This Master List may be updated as needed, and will be of great use to customers, employees, managers and owners of both walk-in and on-line Christian bookstores. Therefore, please use this list as the Lord leads.

Please note the new category, Centering/Contemplative Prayer. For a detailed analysis of this phenomenon, please refer to the book, A Time of Departing by Ray Yungen.

Your comments and questions are welcomed. Until then, may the Lord bless you in your efforts to defend the faith, protect the flock and expose the unfruitful works of darkness (Jude 3; Acts 20:27-32; Ephesians 5:11).
