Tennent Media at Princeton University

 

In spring 2009, Tennent Media began placing a 10-part series of full-page advertisements in The Daily Princetonian.  Each article seeks to dispel one commonly held misconception about Christianity.  The articles will be posted here as they are published.

1 The New Testament is Not Historically Reliable

2 Science Disproves Christianity

3 Sin is Neither a Universal nor Significant Problem

4 Biblical Miracles and Jesus' Resurrection are Counterfeit

5 Christianity Isn't Different from Other Religions

6 Christianity Is a Bore

7 Jesus Was Just a Moral Teacher

8 Life Has Meaning and Purpose Without God

9 You Can Lead a Good, Moral Life and Still Get to Heaven

10 Christianity Has Done More Harm Than Good in the World

During spring 2004, Tennent Media placed 10 full-page advertisements in The Daily Princetonian, postered the campus with messages about the gospel, and distributed free books to everyone in the campus community (200 copies of The Passion of the Christ by John Piper, 200 copies of The Jesus I Never Knew by Philip Yancey, 200 copies of Jesus Among Other Gods by Ravi Zacharias, and 200 copies of The Question of God by Armand Nicholi).

The advertisements were written by Princeton alumni and students. 

 

1 Life: God made us and gave us life to know and enjoy him.

6 New Life: God became human in Jesus Christ.

 

 

2 Life: A love that lasts, a purpose to life, eternity in our hearts...because God made us for a relationship with him.

7 New Life: Jesus died the death we deserve to offer us forgiveness and new life.

 


 

3 Death: We have forsaken our relationship with God by rejecting him, resulting in spiritual death.
8 New Life: Reconciled, freed, healed, accepted, made whole, given new life...because Jesus took what was mine and gave me what was his.

 

 

 

4 Death: Loneliness, war, addiction, grief, despair, racism, death...the experience of separation from God.

9 Life or Death: We must choose to trust in Jesus in order to receive new life from God.

 

 


5 New Life: God's loving initiative in his son Jesus Christ offers us new lfe in a renewed relationship with God.
10 Life or Death: Two ways to respond to Jesus.
