Thursday, March 31st, 2005 Posted in Media | 3 Comments »

Two potentially offensive organizations came together when the Wittenburg Door covered Church Marketing Sucks. It's an interview with Brad Abare and I, and I think for the most part it went pretty well. Being interviewed isn't easy. Now I know why ...
