Church signboards for the street - ideas for noticeboards and signage publicity
Communicate Jesus blog shares this very easy idea – an A-frame sign outside the church building. Sounds very effective.

L James Harvey
Kregel Publications
ISBN 0-8254-2887-4
Here’s a new book of ’single sentence sermons’ – quotations and aphorisms – which have been collected together by Harvey to “use on church signs, bulletins, newsletters and sermons”.

This isn’t because the editor didn’t like the organization or didn’t want to print the release. Rather it was because in order to fix the release enough for publication would just take too much time.
