From one viewpoint, yes! But look at it this way: 

With 465,000 vehicles daily passing under seven LED 

illuminated billboards 24/7; that’s 13 million vehicles in 

a four week period, so the advertising cost averages 

just $.46/1000 vehicles! 

That's cheap, unstoppable, and 

places truth before a new crowd of people every day!

Where do we get Finances & Donations?

 We have dedicated all Don's fixed income to guarantee this project. 

Along with his funding, there have been sacrificial donations from 

a growing faithful group of donors. We can tell you that many of these 

are living paycheck to paycheck. May God bless them and every mite 

they may give! This dedicated group will take Gideon’s forces forward. 

Rest assured, 100% of every donor dollar goes for billboard leases and 

vinyls. There are no office staff, phone, or savings account, health 

insurance, etc. expenses. 

THANK YOU FOR YOUR PRAYERS AND DONATIONS!

Why should I invest in EvangelismBillboards.com?

We are dedicated to financially guarantee this ministry and its contracts. 

It is not our livelyhood. Donors need to know that now is just the right 

time to financially support EvangelismBillboards.com. When using 

Billboards, Covid no longer halts evangelism; it pushes evangelism 

into new, largely unentered avenues! So this is the time to join in by 

praying for and financially supporting this important ministry. 

It looks like Covid will be with us indefinitely!

Do you have results?

Every person traveling past these boards at one time or another notes 

them. They are inescapable scenery. As example, just today, when a 

Costco employee in Knoxville was shown the billboard photos, he 

recognized most of them. People read billboards. They work! From 

that point forward it is the Holy Spirit's responsibility. We're just 

sowing seed along the highways. The Great Resurrection Day will 

reveal just how many have heeded the call. 

Now is the time for the call to go out, even while Covid muzzles 

live evangelism.

How large are the Billboard ViNYS?

Smaller ones are available, but we chose the most popular size, 

the big 14x48’ “bulletins” because of their readability and because 

it allows more locations. Every eight weeks a vinyl gets rehung 

at a different location. This promotes motorist curiosity, and

gives other commuters an opportunity to see the messages.

We began the Lamar giant billboard campaign with just two different

vinyls. But eventually we felt impressed to feature six more beautiful

end time Bible topics to be circulating on different structures. 

The eight are:   

“Remember the Sabbath”, “Thus the Heavens”, “The First Great Lie”, 

“Hour of Judgment”, “Spiritualism”, “Three Angel’s Warning”, 

“The True Healer”, and “Come out of Babylon”.

***

What are the steps in Creating a Contract?

First we give the billboard company an idea of the area where the

campaign needs to cover.  In Lamar's case, Julie, finds, from her 2,800

Knoxville area billboard inventory, several 14x48’ structures that have

at least an eight week reservation gap, are located in high traffic

areas, and have good exposure. She emails us the details, suggests

which will be the best, along with their cost; then we Google Earth

“virtual” drive on our computer screen the route, see the locations 

as a driver would see them, and then choose the one(s) we want. 

Julie emails the Contract for the selected structure(s), with the dates, 

and the vinyl to be hung, and confirming the total cost. Our signature 

is digital so we each have a signed Contract within minutes of final 

approval, without ever leaving our offices. Within the week a new sign 

is up and preaching. It can happen that quickly!

How are the Billboards illuminated at night?

Billboard lighting today is by LEDs. These high intensity bulbs really

make the vibrant colors of the vinyls pop. The vinyls actually stand out

far better at night, with the night background contrast, than during the

day, believe it or not. You should see the genie holding the crystal ball

in the “Spiritualism” vinyl! At night both the genie and the crystal ball

luminesce a purple/blue. It’s amazing! So we  always get an illuminated

structure and are happy to pay the $100/month extra for it. Bored

truckers will appreciate it and make conversation of what they see.

The extended wintertime darkness also necessitates it.

How is the vinyl sign created?

Most often a Bible text is first chosen for a topic, but sometimes a

particularly evocative picture comes to mind first. The artwork

illustration is selected based on its association with the Bible text, how

engaging it is, and how colorful it is. It can be a lengthy process

searching through many pictures. However, (our secret) much of this

work has already been done by those in the SDA publishing houses.

Seventh-day Adventists have been publishing for many decades using

wonderful artwork. Lars Justinen, a noted artist, has formed a

company called GoodSalt, in which artwork by the Review and Herald,

Southern Publishing, and Pacific Press have been assembled and

categorized. We simply look online for the right artwork, and contact

GoodSalt with the selection we wish. GoodSalt gives us a license quote

based on how the art is used. Some of the art must be renewed every

time a new vinyl is printed. Others are based on the length of time the

art is used. This is an investment, but what do you have if you don’t

have an attractive billboard? - wasted effort! And going cheap speaks

far louder than a Bible text.

***

Are any Billboards about Sensitive or Unpopular Topics?

Yes, indeed. 

Most of the Bible's end-time messages are unpopular. 

Some have asked if we will have billboards deriding the Papacy. 

The answer is No. 

It is impossible to appropriately identify Revelation’s Beast Power 

in the space of a billboard, and while a motorist hurtles down the road. 

Our billboards use only Revelation’s mystic symbols and text to strike 

a responsive chord. Then those wishing further information can follow 

the Amazing Facts web link shown on the vinyl. This web link 

will include Amazing Facts’ 1st class videos and Doug Batchelor’s 

many evangelistic series. As example, please see my most recent 

and beautiful “Come Out of Babylon that ye receive not her Plagues, RevelationMystery.com” vinyl. And be assured that every vinyl has met 

Amazing Fact's scrutiny and Doug Batchelor’s personal use approval. 

God is using Amazing Facts. I don’t need to reinvent their wheel. If you 

still have Bible questions, say on the Papacy, please, please see how 

Amazing Facts has beautifully done their RevelationMystery.com web site.

***

What is the black banner across most of the billboard vinyls?

Each vinyl has a black “thumbnail” banner along the bottom which

announces a topic related Amazing Facts web link, such as

SabbathTruth.com, HellTruth.com, AmazingHealthFacts.org,

666Truth.org, etc. Doug Batchelor’s ministry, Amazing Facts, has an

ever expanding, fantastic group of web links on many intriguing Bible

topics. Each of them link back eventually to all the other links. This

way one may start out by studying, say, the topic on death, but

eventually will come across the Sabbath, or the Mark of the Beast, etc.

In addition to the many beautiful, engaging videos and evangelism

programs offered, there are free on line and printed books, and Bible

studies offered. This is a fantastic resource, and it’s right there for a

motorist/passenger to look up and study, even before they get to their

destination, all from one uncluttered billboard! Ingenious & Inspired!

Who does the Ad's Final Assembly?

Next the art, text, and AF web link are sent to Lamar’s graphic arts

guru, Fernando, who does the magic of making it into a 

billboard proof. Fernando allows us to critique his masterpiece “proof”

once (maybe twice, but we can’t be picky. He is a very busy,

professional man with 2,800 billboards to service!) In a week or so he

sends us the final draft; and the next thing we know is when the printer

in Boulder Colorado sends a final, final draft of what they are going to

physically print on their giant full color vinyl printer. Following our 

online signature, and within just a few days, the completed vinyl rests

in the Lamar warehouse, ready to install.
