<icontent>     Hi,      Will be in NYC next week for the first time. Thanks to all the terrific and informative posts in this NYC forum - have been able to plan most of itinerary by just reading. have always read TA before planning all my trips so far.      Would be greatly appreciative, if someone could please tell me the location of Christian bookstores in NYC. Have transacted online previously with Christianbook.com but the shipping charges cost as much as the books.!!      Help, please. Thank you.   </icontent>

<rcontent>     Who thinks of distances in Manhattan in miles? A better way of looking at it is that it is very handy to the 51st Street stop of the #6 train. If you are staying down by Unioin Square (which is about two miles away), it is a very esy location to get to.    </rcontent>

<rcontent>     On several visits to NYC, I haven&#39;t seen many Christian book stores. Family Christian Stores lists two locations in NJ - check their website for details and distances.    Several churches or cathedrals we visited - either for a tour or a service - had book counters. (Check Times Square Church at 50 &amp; Bwy). And there are several large book stores (Borders, Barnes &amp; Noble) which have wide selections of religious books.    Have a great trip!   </rcontent>

<rcontent>     If you google &quot;christian bookstores new york city&quot; you will get a bunch of hits for brick-and-mortar stores, not mail order, including this http://www.christianpub.com/e/about.asp at 315 West 43rd Street (between 8th and 9th Avenues).    </rcontent>

<rcontent>     Hong SO    There is a book shop at the Times Square Church  Located at 51st Street &amp; Broadway. This is David Wilerson&#39;s church (of The Cross and the Switchblade). They have a book stall after the service.    You (as an first time international visitor) are invited to have tea with them after the service too and they give you a free book.     Hope this helps   </rcontent>

<rcontent>     I haven&#39;t been in there before but maybe the American Bible Society on the Upper West Side.    http://www.bibles.com/ They seem to sell books online but I&#39;m not sure they have a store there as well.   </rcontent>
