Earlier this month, I posted an article about Pathway Church in Palo Alto, California and their refreshing website targeted at unbelievers.
The pastor of Pathway, Scott Aughtmon, contacted me not long after that article appeared. Since I only live about 45 minutes away from Palo Alto, we arranged to meet at Starbucks last Wednesday afternoon. We spent almost two hours talking about how principles of internet marketing can be used to spread the gospel.
One of the most interesting parts of the conversation was hearing Scott talking about his experiments with Google Adwords to promote their church plant. According to Scott, they are receiving a nice stream of visits to the church website as a result of their Google ads.
