Killed Ideas Announces People’s Choice Award

So there were the ideas and then there was the book. Now there’s the Killed Ideas People’s Choice Award. After putting the vote to the people, which of the 50 contenders took home the prize? A very un-praise the lord-like website for Roots Church.

Of the work, we wrote, “Usually a church website screams ‘Praise the lord! Come to Jesus! You are a sinner!” which can be a bit off putting to people who just want an hour of peace on a Sunday without all the fire and brimstone. The curch website communicates welcome over wrath. For those who don’t believe church should rule your life, this church is on to something and is likely to gain more members than it scares away.”

And with that, this concludes Killed Ideas Volume I. Yes, there will be a Volume II. It’ll be a bit different and we’ll be sure to let you know what it’s all about when things are in place.
