God Speaks
"Wherever you go, there I am."
"I don't question your existence."
"I'm also making a list and checking it twice."
"If we don't communicate, you haven't got a prayer."
In 1998, an anonymous client gave the Smith advertising agency in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, $150,000 to create an advertising campaign to reach people who used to be faithful to a religion but had drifted away. The result was a humorous, thought-provoking, nondenominational series of quotes from God, run on billboards. The campaign created such a positive response that the Outdoor Advertising Association of America picked it as its public-service campaign for the year and began running it in two hundred cities nationwide. The billboards have been featured on the Today show, ABC World News Tonight with Peter Jennings, and CNN and covered by more than two thousand newspapers and countless local radio and television stations. Now you can read God Speaks, the book. Witty, jubilant, and inspiring, God Speaks is an irresistible wonder of a book.

I finished it in less than 10 minutes, but you can take and should take the time you need. It's so deep, touching, and simple. Amazing reminder of God. Genius.

Easy read. Nice distraction for the day. Made me smile. Made me think. Always a good combination.

Compilation of the billboard campaign. Some good, some not so good. End result = indifferent.

This was pretty good. It's a book based on the God Speaks ads than ran in 1999. Some ate pretty awesome, some are just okay. But the ones that are great are pretty great.

Has some thought provoking quotes, a very quick read but I think I will use some of these for bulletin boards at church this year!
