Assuming your patron doesn't care about editions, printings, etc., and assuming some are still in print in some form, I would suggest ordering through his/her local independent bookstore. For out of print titles, or for a collector wanting all first editions, printings, etc. in dust jackets in good condintion, I would suggest the used and rare book market, and specifically consulting the Antiquarian Booksseller's Association of America's website <<http://www.abaa.org/>http://www.abaa.org/>, where you can search their database of dealers for a dealer who specializes in religion/theology, or a dealer in your area. There are also websites where dealers post their holdings with prices, and your patron can browse multiple holdings. I don't have the website addresses for these to hand, but I don't doubt they would be easy to find on the standard search engines.
