There are currently more than 2 billion christians in the world today. Making Christianity one of the largest religious groups. Within Christianity God has given us, Pastors, Evangelists, Apostles, Teachers and Prophets many have been given the gift of writing.
Books have been written on various topics from personal encounters with the Holy Spirit to how to overcome. Jeremiah 30:2 (NIV) says,
“This is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says: ‘Write in a book all the words I have spoken to you.’”
