    A Gideon came to my grade school about 50 years ago. When he spoke to our assembly, I felt like he was speaking just to me. When I got home, I knelt on my bed and promised God I would read the Bible every day for the rest of my life. They diagnosed me dyslexic, I was a poor reader, but every night I read I had peace. Eventually I made to John chapter six and decided I must follow Jesus. "...Lord to whom shall we go you have the words of eternal life?" John 6:68

      You wasted your life. God is imaginary.

      Thank you for taking the time to consider my reply Gus, and to pass judgment on my life. I'm glad I will stand before God, not Gus on judgment day.
      Gus, I hope you repent and find your life in God and that it becomes rich and wonderful and everlasting.
      There is a new life that awaits you Gus through faith in Jesus Christ. What a better way to learn of the life being offered to you than to start reading the Bible.
      Have a great day Gus! Hope to stand next to you some awesome day before the judgment seat of God both of us washed from our sins by the blood of Jesus and you and I, with all the redeemed believers escaping the pains of hell clothed in the righteousness of Christ Jesus our exalted Lord and Saviour ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

    I love the reliability of there being a Bible in my hotel room.

      And they always have that page near the front that tells you what to read depending on what problem you have.

    It's such a shame that there's not as many Bibles in UK hotel rooms. I first saw a Gideons New Testament & Psalms in my hotel room draw very recently. When I heard it was the NIV like the one on my Bible app on my phone, I felt that the Lord was calling me to listen to the Bible on my phone every day instead of just now and then when I felt in the mood. I couldn't read the Gideons Bible as I'm blind, but the app has an audio Bible.

    I’ve visited 4 hotels, 3 major chains in TX over the last few days (Hilton, Hyatt and Wyndham/LaQuinta and NONE of them had a Bible! I don’t like the direction our nation is moving in and I am seriously thinking of moving out of the country. It’s just not the Bible thing but so much more.

      Last time I was in Texas the hotel had both the Gideon bible and the book of Mormon. This was in Corpus Christi I think.

    I really do appreciate the information, but why the terrible music? I can barely. hear what is being said, and the music is giving me a headache. Sorry, but I have to leave before the video is finished. (This is not just a problem here, but throughout TH-cam.)

    Looked this up after realizing, “hey, there’s no Bible in this hotel room!”😂 Literally never read one, but they were always there when I was a kid. Thanks for the backstory!

      I might start leaving those free Bibles in hotels that don't have it. In fact, we all should.

    In Texas I've also seen the book of Mormon in the dresser drawer. I've never seen it in any other hotel.
