A wry look at some of the weirder things Christians get up to (and stuff)

International Christian Retail show

WE JUST MISSED IT!

Tarnation. We just missed out on attending the International Christian Retail Show, as mentioned in my last blog post. It took place on July 13-17 2008 at Orange County Convention Center, Orlando, Florida. From the website:

"You need to be at the International Christian Retail Show. It's the largest show in Christian retail. With over eight football fields of exhibit space filled with new product; almost two dozen training opportunities targeted at specific retail practices and challenges; and more retailers, suppliers, distributors, and industry professionals in Christian retail gathered than any other place in the world, this is your chance to get it done."

("It"?)

The exhibitor list was lengthy and I couldn't be bothered to go to all their websites to see what they sell (sorry) although I do know a lot of it will be very nice stuff, like Bibles and clever t-shirts. But I just wanted to see the funny stuff.

I was tempted by Christian Outdoorsman, however, whose logo seems to feature a fish-hook and a rifle sight and whose website says they "provide apparel for the Christian Outdoorsman, to help him witness his love for the outdoors and the Lord to others." Where else would you get your 'I'm hooked on Jesus' t-shirt?
