ADVERTISE… IT'S OK!
There is nothing wrong with advertising… "WHAT?!?!?!!" Yep, it’s o.k. to advertise in church - unless of course you are an avid contributor to *the slice of laodecia website (have you seen this stuff - if ever there was a waste of time, energy, resources and money in the Kingdom , it's at that website*). So many people automatically think of television commercials that sell those things we as Christians should be able to live without. What is your pastor doing during the services when he makes announcements? He's ADVERTISING! Remember? Put it on a billboard! Or maybe in the bulletin. What about setting up a booth in the lobby with pictures and sign-up sheets. Have children give a special presentation during the adult services. Wear hats, shirts, name-tags, tattoos! Whatever it takes to communicate your vision. Create brochures, flyers, handouts, signs, posters, etc. Have fun finding new ways to put it out there! Make it look sharp and organized. Make it worthy of being advertised. Put forth a vision of quality and clarity that your church will be proud of.
*disclaimer: Jamie Doyle really does feel this way about the slice of laodicea website.
