  CHRISTMAS STARTS WITH CHRIST
NATIONAL NEWSPAPERS

The crucible of public opinion

76% of the population buy or read a national newspaper each week. 83% each month. All shades of the opinion spectrum are addressed and influenced within their pages.

In recent months we have been reminded of the critical part the national press plays in shaping our nation's viewpoint. Sometimes that's for the right motives and by the right methods, sometimes not. Whether we as Christians approve or disapprove, it will continue, with or without our presence. And so it is vital that we are present.

Jesus dined with tax collectors. Paul preached in the market place. Strong messages, powerfully delivered.

We can proclaim to our nation...

However you dress it up... Christmas starts with Christ.


A strong message, powerfully delivered.

Commercial advertisers know the power of national newspapers and place their messages within them to shape public behaviour and attitudes. Can you recall the last time, anytime, the country's Christian community did likewise?

Have you ever seen a Christian advertising campaign in your national newspaper?

Would you like to?

How we can make it happen

There are 4 million churchgoers in the country.

Jesus healed 10 lepers. Just one came back and gave him thanks. If just one in 100 of us donated £10, we could do likewise by celebrating his birth with impactful colour advertisements in all major national newspapers.

However you dress it up... Christmas starts with Christ.

A Christian card to our nation.
