Christian Book Notes

Author Martin Murphy, over at his blog, Rational Christian Thoughts, wrote a post this past Saturday about a 19th century preacher speaking of the decline in the church and culture in his day. Read the few choice quotes Martin has shared and leave a comment with your thoughts. Here is the first paragraph of Martin’s post:
