When I was living in Tulsa, Oklahoma, I had reason often to pass through a suburb of Tulsa called Bixby. And in Bixby was this independent church that was apparently doing quite well attracting new members. They had a new church building. On Sunday morning, as you drove by, you could see their parking lot was full of cars. But what I liked most about the place was this huge billboard that they had out in front of the church on the main road. It stood about fifty feet high in the air and it had the name of the church on it and the name of the minister and it would light up at night.
