Obama Bucks/CANCELLED

Upon further reflection Living Waters has decided to cancel their upcoming million dollar bill Gospel tract featuring President-elect Barack Obama. These are sensitive times and everyone wants to be aware of the delicate political climate in which we are living. Though the tracts were well-intentioned and fun, it was determined that it is always better to be on the safe side. In short, politics and evangelism rarely mix, and it’s always best to be apolitical when sharing our faith.

    Um. My wife’s first reaction is that this picture is an insulting racial caricature. Why is every other president done seriously and this one is a cartoon. I think that there will be a backlash from the intended audience.

    I guess things work out for the best – I was looking forward to it, but there’s always that potential negative reaction, like back in the day those times I THOUGHT I found a $20 bill folded up, and it was a “modern gospel” tract, and I thought that would be a turn-off, and the person would be mad and just toss it. So maybe something similar would’ve happened with the Obama fans.
