We have one here in our town, at the local Christian bookshop. It is always well patronized, and used to stand on the sidewalk just outside the shop. Unfortunately the local government council has ruled that unless an application is made and an annual fee paid, the shop could be charged with obstruction of the sidewalk... Working on it!

How many of your churches use Signs of the Times boxes?

They are a non-threatening way to get your message out and will often yield Bible study requests that can be followed up on personally.
I think me and others don't exactly know what they are. Can you elaborate please Tall73.

Me being in charge of the Information desk, I can safely say we don't at our actual church building. At our place we call "central" our offices and storeroom, we have a stand with Signs Magazines, and other books.

Though we don't present any at the table, we do quite often just hand them out, especially to new people, and at special seminars, such as the Mark Finely Discoveries series currently happening in my area...

Though I do think it is a good idea, and I might consider taking action to get some on the info table.....Depending on how expensive they are, seen my church is in debt..

Another church I know of, nearby has a stand with signs magazines, exactally how you described them!!!

These are to be put in public places.

Check out this link. They are more or less like that. They say Signs of the Times and "take one free" or something like that.
