Sometimes it just makes me sick…
Call it getting up on the wrong side of the bed - or maybe I am just a little bit grouchy this morning - but there are times when the Christian Marketing machine just makes me sick! I’m reading through my copy of Outreach magazine (great magazine by the way) and I came across one of the many ads found in there for various Christian ministries etc. This ad has this tagline:
Ever wonder if your sermons are connecting? Try the translation that speaks to the heart.
and goes on to say:
As a pastor, you want your messages to connect on the deepest possible level. Thankfully, the New Living Translation delivers living language that hits the target every time. Scripture comes to life. People pay attention. The message gets through. It’s the translation you can count on to connect, and that you can depend on for precise scholarship. Speak God’s Word to your congregation in language that they understand - and watch them wrap their hearts around God’s message.
And finally at the bottom of the ad they advertise that Pastor’s can get a free 4-week sermon series at pastorport.com - when I clicked to check it out I couldn’t find it.
