February 22, 2006 Update: A local news channel, WNDU, ran a story about the sermon series and the use of billboards by the church. Note the complaint from a local resident. Something to keep in mind with regard to this particular subject matter, whether you are thinking about using billboards or cinema advertising. It’s the subject matter which makes the use of the billboards suspect, however, not the strategy in general (at least it seems to me). Thanks to OldTruth.com for the heads-up on the news story.
Recently, we wrote about a campaign called IHateMyMarriage.com, devised by NewSpring Church in Anderson, South Carolina. Now comes news of a similar campaign called MyLameSexLife.com from Granger Community Church.
The additional twist here is that Granger Community is not only using billboards but cinema advertising as well. Great idea for a community like mine which doesn’t allow billboards.

I believe that the internet provides today's church with a historic opportunity .... to tell the old, old story of Jesus and His love in ways which could only have been imagined in times past. The objective of this website is to explore the various ways in which today's technology can be used to spread the gospel around the world.
