Only you would do such a thing.
My sister had a catholic wedding ,and a catholic school joined the church I asked someone where the rest-room was and it was in the school I went in and I discovered I had a tract in my coat pocket I took it out and left it there.It was one like PPH puts out.

Jerry Falwell's Secret to Church Growth:

Listening to NPR this morning I heard Falwell explain how his church went from a few dozen members in a storefront to 22,000 members. He stated that it was God first, but secondly he said he began using radio, then television. It didn't seem to affect Falwell's strong independent Baptist convictions about morality and conservative Biblical interpretation. Amazingly enough, television use did not send them down the proverbial "slippery slope" nor did it pave the way for ordination of homosexuals.

Here is a quote verbatum from the report (I typed it as it was being said):

"A pastor has to be media savvy in order to reach people" - Jerry Falwell

I think the Independent Baptist movement he helped to found has a different opinion of him than what is noted here. They felt he deserted them and went liberal even to inviting a HOMO to speak there.

I can't believe it. Rico and I agree on something.
