I recently met a man at the local Pick-a-Brick wall who was clearly looking at
the bricks out of personal interest.  We struck up a conversation and The Brick
Testament came up.  Turns out he is a youth minister.  He said to me "It is so
good to see someone who is able to combine his LEGO hobby with his faith."  He
was somewhat taken aback when I suggested that he should perhaps read between
the lines before he started using the BT in his youth ministry.  He certainly
hadn't noticed the subtleties.

In totally related questions, how's the book doing?

I bought a copy, so it's at least in the single digits...

Rev., great work as always!
