I leave mine places some times (unintentionally) and have read out of the Gideons but most Christians carry their own Bible. I think these bed side Bibles were primarily meant for comfort for the lone, lost traveler though. I suggest we all start leaving Bibles behind more often, where ever we are.
Smiling at you...while you were posting, I was typing.
My mother-in-law, a trained Christian missionary, leaves bibles at rest stops for those who need hope and salvation.
