...says an advertisement campaign on 800 buses across Britain. Some of you may have heard the news. On 6 January the ad campaign was officially introduced.
God is always at work around us if we will just take the time to look. Originally, the word "probably" was not included in the adverts. However, the organiser of the campaign said in October that the word "probably" was included to ensure the posters did not breach transit advertising regulations, which stipulate ads should not offend religious people. God at work.
The whole campaign is an AMAZING thing for us! Just yesterday I spoke with one of the teenagers that I hang out with about a conversation he had this week with one of his mates about the signs. They talked about God in a way that they never would have without the adverts.
If you pray for this, pray that Christians in London will not take offense, but will take every opportunity to share the love of Christ. Pray that conversations about God will arise where they otherwise would not have. Pray that people in London will begin to consider the place of God in their life.
Thanks for the prayers. Read the actual article at http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/comment/faith/article5459138.ece
