I saw a religious pamphlet the other day, waiting on a bench at a subway station. It caught my eye because it had sheep on it. The folks at that church seriously need to hire someone in marketing. I won't attempt to paraphrase (let alone a shot at the paragraph verbatim - I'd have had to take the pamphlet for that, which just didn't seem right, given that my intent was to make fun of it) Let's just say it didn't sound like they were looking for shepherds.
The church down the street from me could also use a marketing specialist. Or maybe a twitter account to practice getting a message across in 140 characters.
Right now, the church sign says:
"Why put a question mark where God put a period?" (Is this to promote safe sex?)
Last week the sign outside said:
"Low on faith? Stop in for a fill-up!" (Which made me think "I'll ride my bike, thanks" - perhaps God had the last laugh on that one. ;))
ps. I know my title doesn't quite make sense, but I tried. First I was thinking something with Little Bo Peep. Anyone? Ideas?
pps. When I typed the title, I made a mistake and put Ghad. (Which I imagine would be pronounced "Jihad". WHAT DOES IT MEAN?????)
ppps. I'm not trying to trash anyone's religion (or sheep) in any way shape or form with this post.

I saw a good one the other day myself on a church by my house "I was going to waste but Jesus recycled me". Agreed that a marketing expert is a good call.
