“Marketing by interrupting people isn’t cost-effective anymore. You can’t afford to seek out people and send them unwanted marketing messages, in large groups, and hope that some will send you money. Instead, the future belongs to marketers who establish a foundation and process where interested people can market to each other. Ignite consumer networks and then get out of the way and let them talk.” PeopleWayProcessGroupsCostMessagesFoundationMarketingConsumersUnwantedIgniteMarketersInterruptingLarge Groups Author:Seth

“Christ had no interest in gathering vast crowds of professed adherents who would melt away as soon as they found out what following Him actually demanded of them. In our own presentation of Christ's gospel, therefore, we need to lay a similar stress on the cost of following Christ and make sinners face it soberly before we urge them to respond to the message of free forgiveness. In common honesty, we must not conceal the fact that free forgiveness in one sense will cost everything.” NeedsFactsFacesFoundInterestChristCommonHonestyCostMessagesStressLaysCrowdsFollowingSinnerUrgesGatheringPresentationFollowing Christ Author:J.

“When one is that powerful and one think life will last like that forever, it is simply the most ephemeral thing. I don't think these sons and daughters of drug dealers are contributing to a lasting peace nor to human values that add to our society.

“A long time ago, Trinity and I made a list of types of guys you should never date. We add to it every now and then. It includes things like never date a guy whose computer costs more than his car (you'll never get him to pay attention to you except over instant messages), never date a guy who has a pet lizard (he's probably into weird stuff in bed) and never under any circumstances go on a second date with a guy who says the word "married" on the first date (he'll turn out to be a mama's boy or a religious type)” ShouldFirstsLongMadeGuyTurnsStuffReligiousPayAttentionBoysCarTypeGoes OnCircumstancesCostBedComputerMarriedMessagesLong TimeAddListsPay AttentionInstantPetNow And ThenLong Time AgoMamaTrinityLizardsFirst DateType Of GuyWeird StuffMama's Boy Book:I Kissed a Zombie, and I Liked It Source: I Kissed a Zombie, and I Liked It
