Christian Self Help Books Homepage

Question: Seriously, what is the real reason that christian self-help books are full of eastern philosophy?

Because if these so-called "Christians " actually wanted Christian advice on their problems, they'd read the Bible. I presume that most Christians already own several bibles. If you want to sell someone something, it has to have something they don't already own.

Because the answers aren't in Christianity ;)

Because Jesus went to Tibet to study, where'd you think he'd gone all those years from childhood to manhood!

I "ve never found that. I "ve found them to be filled with bible verses.

Seriously, what examples do you have. Are you proposing that ALL Christian "self-help " books have Eastern philosophy? And if that is the case, name the books. To ask such a generalized question deserves a generalized answer....
