How much will some companies pay for product placement in a movie? Well, one Italian movie company couldn't give it away. They weren't even able to show the ultimate user - Jesus - using one of the world's leading global brands, Coke. In the film 7 Km da Gerusalemme (7km From Jerusalem),...

Somehow I had Jesus pegged as a Windows kind of a guy - in a down-with-the-masses sort of a way. But 29-year-old developer Jereme Hancock reckons Jesus would be all for Linux - and has developed the Ubuntu Christian Edition , according to an article at Linux.com "Along with the standard Ubuntu applications...

I've really got distracted from my mini-series related to that best-selling tome, Selling Crap to Christians , with the idea of WJWRD (What Jesus Would Really Do). We've had What Would Jesus Sell? and What Would Jesus Buy? (Assuming, of course, that He wasn't too busy buying up all those...

Whoa, this one passed me by entirely last year! There really is a movie called What Would Jesus Buy? - from docu-film maker Morgan Spurlock ( Supersize Me ) and director Rob Van Alkemade - and you can see the trailer or order the VD at the official WWJB website .

And now I know it's true - they ARE organised. Journalist Stephanie Simon visited the International Christian...

I've just got back from holiday (in Iceland, where it hit an astonishing 84 degrees fahrenheit one day. I don't know what that is in new money). Sadly, I found nothing at all there of a ridiculous religious nature - only beautiful wooden churches and a wonderfully warm and welcoming Salvation...

OK, we know what God says about idols. But "A decade-old toasted cheese sandwich said to bear an image of the Virgin Mary has sold on the eBay auction website for $28,000," says the BBC . And such was the level of frenzied interest, there were over 1.7 million hits to that auction page. That...

Are your coats Christian? Are your jackets Jesus-like? Are your hooks holy? Every single item in a believer's household should proclaim the faith. So from Christian Cheese comes another novelty which is as delightful as it is respectful. Don't hang up your coat on anything less than these fabulous...

There's a market for everything, isn't there? And when it comes to the rapture, there are plenty of Christians just desperate to tell you they're ready... 'Shame about you' , the inference seems to be. After all, where's YOUR rapture-ready merchandise? So why have a plain ol'...
