| Posted 1/26/2002 2:03 AM (GMT -6) |   | Is anyone else having this kind of trouble purchasing Dr. Boyd's books?
Last month by chance I discovered "Satan and the Problem of Evil: Constructing a Trinitarian Warfare Theodicy" while browsing around at the bookstore. No sooner had I skimmed the first few chapters than a man came up to me and said, "Is that Greg Boyd's book?" Surprised, I checked the cover and said "yes." He said, "I wanted to buy that as a gift, are there any other copies?" We went to look but it was the only copy. I told him he could buy the copy I was holding. He told me I could look through it, but he'd back to buy it in a few minutes. After looking through it awhile longer, I wanted to purchase it! But he came back and I gave it to him.
Since that time I've been to several bookstores no more than 6 times to buy the book only to be told that it's "sold out" and that "they can't keep it in stock because it sells too quickly." I finally managed to purchase "God of the Possible" after a few attempts, but I still can't get Trinitarian Warfare.
Anyway...as far as I can tell, it's hugely popular which is great! I just can't get my hands on a copy. grrrr.

| Posted 1/26/2002 7:37 PM (GMT -6) | | | Miss ~E, I would suggest specially ordering it @ your local bookstore, that thought has crossed your mind, right? I just ordered "Divine Forknowledge: Four Views" from borders, and got it within a couple of days--that is amazing, considering I thought it would take weeks. I hope you find it. Blessings

P.S. Gregw, Miss ~E lives on the west coast, so, she probably will not be coming by the Bethel Library any time soon, heh.
