Описание: TO the Western eye there seems to be always hanging before Constantinople a veil of mystery and separation. Its remoteness from Great Britain and America in territorial distance and antiquity of history is intensified manyfold by that other remoteness, caused by variety of races, languages, customs, and creeds.It is difficult for the foreign resident to know it well, and for the passing stranger or tourist, utterly impossible.It has been my precious privilege to enjoy unusual opportunities for learning the story and entering into the life of the kaleidoscopiccity. The preparation of this book has been a labor of delight, but it has occupied many years. No man could have a more fascinating theme.Even as Constantinople has a charm for all classes of mankind, I have sought to make this not a volume for any one narrow range of readers, but a book for all.THE reception accorded to "Constantinople" both in this country and Europe, exceeded my most sanguine expectations. A book which had for its theme a capital at once so famous, so fascinating, and yet so little known, was doubtless sure of finding a place.None the less am I grateful to the press and the public for their cordial welcome. Though this is a carefully revised edition, as few changes as possible in the original have been made, and the work is substantially the same as when first published. The next score of years will transform Constantinople.Much that is described in these pages will soon vanish, "and the tourist seek it in vain". But as long as this book lasts, it will preserve the careful panorama of the capital as it was in the last year of the nineteenth century.EDWIN A. GROSVENOR.

The way we view religion today has changed immensely, and increased access to technology has led to a businesslike presentation of evangelism to the masses. Competition is strong with grassroots churches vying for larger buildings in order to accommodate expanding congregations, and money has become an important factor. However, the way in which money is obtained has become questionable.
In Its Not for Sale, author Karl A. Grosvenor provides us with an insightful commentary on the monetary focus of todays megachurches and televangelists, which have often promoted tithing and donations rather than concentrating on the spiritual needs of the people. Grosvenor refers to the ultimate source of truththe Bibleto caution those who blindly trust their money to televangelists, helping them to understand what God himself says about tithing, contributions, and the design and growth of the church.
The church is swiftly becoming a vast marketplace with divisions that once stood between different faiths now serving as connections for the advancement of unity and economic success. Yet Christians and church leaders must stay vigilant against putting a price on salvationfor the blood of Christ is freely given and not for sale.
In this book Karl Grosvenor provides us with an excellent, insightful, thoroughly researched and well-presented commentary on the monetary focus of todays megachurches. His concern for people of all economic and ethnic backgrounds who attend these churches and support them with their tithes was echoed in a speech by Michael Eric Dyson on the 50th anniversary of the death of Martin Luther King Jr. This is a must-read for everybody, cautioning those who blindly trust their money to these televangelists, and advising them to refer to the ultimate source, the truth - the Bible, in light of this evolution of the function of the church in our society.
