It's Not My Style But...

We were in Corning NY today meeting up with Leigh and her mom and after that Leigh came back home with us for a visit. While Jeff and I were walking to the restaurant where we had determined to meet, I spotted this "advertisement" of sorts. It's not exactly how I'd advertise my faith, but it works for some.
Nice find but I agree I wouldn't advertise.

Thanks for posting this picture.

I think the owners would feel they were doing something!

I guess they are very devoted and want the world to know.

Interesting - everyone has their own way to do things

I think you have to very bold to advertise your faith like this. Well spotted photo op.

Awesome shot

Not my style, either, but we all have different ways to live our faith. Great shot, though. You've given me the courage to post one somewhat similar.

Holy moly!!!!!

@mzbull Thanks Mz! Oh, I don't mind "advertising" in the sense if someone asks me what I believe, I tell them, but I just don't put it on the bumper of my car. To each his own though, and I must say, the fellow who owns this car was friendly and pleasant to everyone who walked by. I should have asked him if I could take his picture with the car. But that's where I am timid!!

@creativeaddict Thanks Laur! It was fun and not offensive- and it's owner was very nice. No fire and brimstone, just a boldness for the faith.

@maggiemae Thanks Maggie! Yes, the fellow who owned the car was sitting nearby and said hello to all who passed in a very friendly voice and that was it. No "Bible thumping" as some call it and no scare tactics. Just a friendly fellow with a fun car.

@salza Thanks Sally! Yes, I think you're right.

@annied Thank you Annie! True- while I admire the boldness of his display, I could never do this. On the other hand I have no problem telling people what I do believe- I'm just not as bold about it.

@quietpurplehaze Thanks Hazel! Yes, you do and I admire people who are not afraid to just come right out and tell others about what they believe. I will tell others, I'm just not as brave!

@kerristephens Thank you Kerri!

@eudora Thank you Diane! I am not afraid to talk about what I believe, but I'm not as bold. I do admire that though and the nice thing about this was that the owner was sitting near his car and just saying hello to anyone who walked by. That's it- just a nice friendly hello and people were really responding to it.

@susale Thank you Suse! (o: !!

@janiskay Thank you Janice! You're right! It does look great on black!

@olivetreeann i guess the different methods of delivery reach different people - I am not one for things being pushed in my face like this one

@annied I understand- I don't like the in-your-face stuff from anyone either. But, thankfully it was just a decorated car. The owner was nearby and all he was doing was just saying "hi" to folks and wishing them a good day and everyone seemed to like his greetings. So although the car was a little outrageous, he was very respectful.

So I guess he didn't leave his car.

@francoise Thank you Francoise! Apparently that is the method he uses to follow Jesus. (o:
