I'm not a Christian, but when I was, I had similar ideas about marketing the gospel. There's nothing wrong with marketing, and I don't want you to stop. But what I do want, is for the world to collectively stop paying attention, and to invent a better reality than the one being marketed to us. Better than yours, better than everything.

@secretsareboring Good point. Just to keep it simple, let's call "marketing" communicating. There is nothing wrong with communicating—just that hidden agendas, deceptive motives and greed often fill the communications landscape. But, of course, not all communication is that. While much communication is sincere, I agree that there is too much junk out there crying out to us with bad motives. Sorry about your hurtful church/God experience. I pray God reveals His true love to you.

FAKE

@religiousabuse how sweet! what exactly is fake? my hair? the background? how can i help? you are obviously struggling with something. i am sorry if church people have done you wrong.

Is this how bad the world is today that we have to "market" the Gospel? This makes my toes curl.

[beyondrelevance]

@momelock "Market" is just a modern day word for "communication" in a world suffering from message overload. Blessings.

I think the idea of this video is great but it is too long. I haven't watched this all the way through but probably would have if it was in a few parts just a couple of minutes long. This isn't a criticism just a pointer i think you might find helpful for future videos.

[trusay]

love it. i have a similar testimony to you. God bless you

If anything what you did was brave. Your story inspired me. I am under no title (ei, Presbyterian, baptist, etc) I walk the path in which God has prepared me for.
