The Kentucky Baptist Convention has produced two television ads to promote church attendance.
Baptist Convention Executive Director Paul Chitwood unveiled the 30-second ads on Tuesday at the convention's annual meeting in Bowling Green.
Chitwood says he got a lot of requests for TV ads from church members who noticed effective ads by the Mormon church. The new ads are being made available free to Kentucky Baptist churches, associations and other ministries for use in their local TV markets.
One ad tells the story of churchgoer Wayne Brown, who struggled with alcohol addiction before turning his life around and attending church. A narrator in the second ad says "Maybe it's time to rethink church."
The spots were created by oneMission.tv, an Atlanta-based company that specializes in Christian advertising.
