One Church’s Way To Get More People To Show Up Has People Up In Arms – Literally

6/24/2014

The Ignite Church in Joplin, Missouri, decided to do a Father’s Day promotion to get more worshipers in the pews, and their method was unique, to say the least: They decided to give away two AR-15 semi-automatic rifles.
In the video announcing the promotion, pastor Heath Mooneyham challenged the men watching it with this:
“We’re gonna give away two of these stinkin’ guns. You know why? Because we can, and we’re awesome like that,” he said.
*
About the Smith & Wesson AR-15 he said, “You could kill a weak zombie with that thing. But if you really want to double tap a zombie in style, you’re going to want our grand prize…. The Lamborghini of AR-15s.” [...]

“Don’t cry to me that you’re a pansy and you can’t set your alarm. You’re a big boy. You got big balls between your legs. You’re a dad, right?”
Well, this is one way to get people to hear the Good News…
