PROMOTING YOUR WORSHIP & ARTS MINISTRY:
CAN MARKETING BE REDEEMED?

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

(Editor's Note) - Often we as ministries find it difficult to know how to promote the ministries that we're involved in. We are convinced that what we are doing is worthwhile and that God has called us to it, and yet we don't want to use the corrupt marketing techniques that are often employed by the world. What should we do? We trust that the following excellent article will help to encourage you in some of these ways…we've included a couple excerpts, but you're missing out if you don't read the whole article. If you can't get it on the internet, request it from: gcwac@hotmail.com. The following article begins by giving a biblical perspective of marketing and shows how God Himself is a master marketer (without the corruption that we also want to avoid). It encourages us to utilize not only aspects of marketing but to develop an overall, strategic system. We are also encouraged to see this aspect of society redeemed as we approach marketing with a biblical perspective.
