Letter #1:<\/strong><\/p>\n

To Lighthouse Trails:<\/strong><\/p>\n

I just want to inform you that someone is advertising Jesus Calling<\/em> on radio here. \u00a0The advertisement is directing people to JesusCalling.com. \u00a0This is very disappointing since it is on a Christian Talk Radio station (http:\/\/www.newstalk1400.us\/<\/a>), here in Michigan. \u00a0Also, Conservative Talk Radio Announcer Mike Gallagher (http:\/\/www.mikeonline.com\/<\/a>) is doing an ad for them as well. \u00a0In his ad, he talks about how he has kept a copy of Jesus Calling<\/em> on his nightstand for years, even when he is out of town. He speaks very highly of the book and recommends listeners to get a copy or go to the website.<\/p>\n

Click on this link: \u00a0http:\/\/www.jesuscalling.com\/media\/radio\/<\/a><\/p>\n

Because this radio station and Mike Gallagher are very popular, I believe many will buy Jesus Calling<\/em> without knowing that the book doesn’t promote the TRUE Jesus of the Bible.<\/p>\n

SG<\/strong><\/p>\n

Letter #2:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Dear Lighthouse Trails:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Please warn your readers that Senior Fellow and lecturer Eric Metaxas of The King’s College NYC advertises “Jesus Calling” on his radio program.<\/p>\n
