Just start talking
60% of the people around us claim that they don’t even know a Christian! I fear we may be keeping the best thing about us a secret.
During September and October the churches of the Illawarra are joining in a mass media advertising campaign. TV and radio ads will appear on local and Sydney channels promoting Jesus. The campaign is aimed at raising awareness and posing questions.
The strategy is that everyday Christians in their neighbourhoods, work places, schools, sporting fields and shopping centres will have an opportunity at answering questions.
Get ready! We are offering a course; “Just Start Talking” over the next few weeks. You can sign up to the special courses to be held morning and evening at the Ministry Centre or get your Bible Study Group to borrow the DVD and run it yourselves.
More details available next week!
