Hi Cindy,
 
Well, I might have remembered several years ago, but I sure don't know what
it is now. Sorry!

Christian values, such as those presented in Grace Livingston Hill's fiction
are-pretty universal (except when she suggests the teenagers, in the one
book I read, join a Christian youth group; I can't remember the series about
the ministers I read (Mayrie, I think you know because you helped me to
remember several years ago). As long as there  isn't a lot in the books
about believing in Christ or following the Christian way I'm fine with
it--though your idea of labeling the books as both probably is a good idea.
I think labeling the book as Christian fiction would be good. A good long
synopsis   should be able to let me (and Roger) know whether it was a book
we we wanted to proof.  I don't think there's a whole lot of difference
between Christian values and values of other religions or even those of
atheists, smile--in general This next statement may  offend some people, for
which I apologize in advance, but I'm so angry  at hearing Newt Gingrich, a
"good, Christian," I believe, speak against gay marriage on the grounds that
marriage should be between a man and a woman because of family values when
he's had how many divorces?

Cindy, that was a really in teresting letter. I don't know all the authors
either, but I know Brock and Bodie Thoene are kind of like fictional Bible
history, but I wouldn't say particularly preachy. My question is: would you
tend to label the books that are definitely on Christian values as religious
rather than fiction or would you indicate both? The latter is probably what
I would do?

Have a good day and thanks for your interesting observation.
