Sigh

And the award for blatant Christian pandering goes to Revolve, the new, hip Bible that doesn't look like a Bible! Be sure to check out the hip, streaming video explaining the amazing effects of repackaging the Bible to look like Cosmo. (link stolen from here)

I respect what the publishers of this are trying to do: ensure that more teens are reading the Bible. But, when presented with a situation where teen girls find Cosmo more attractive and accessible than the Bible, is the solution to change the Bible, or to change our youth groups? Should we pray for the Holy Spirit to quicken the hearts of believers everywhere towards the Word of God, or should we stick pictures of Justin Timberlake alongside the story of the crucifixion?
