We're bombarded by messages from a world determined to inform, sell, and influence. From bumper stickers to billboards, someone's always trying to tell us something. Often, at first glance, these messages may briefly amuse. But a second look may reveal much more as we recognize biblical principles that enlighten, encourage, and empower us-in places we never expected to find them. We shouldn't be surprised to find God in unusual places. Paul tells us in Romans 1:19 "But the basic reality of God is plain enough. Open your eyes and there it is!" (MSG). From the bumper of the car in front of us to the fortune cookie after the Chow Mein, one-liners meant to entertain often hold a much deeper meaning when seen through the eyes of those who follow Christ. Bumper Sticker Be-Attitudes captures those deeper meanings, combines them with a hearty helping of fun and touches the heart with humor and truth. If you're a busy believer who needs a chuckle and a chunk of Jesus at the same time, pull quickly into the fast lane. Bumper Sticker Be-Attitudes is your ride to enriching moments with Jesus!

A PICTURE MAY BE WORTH A THOUSAND WORDS— BUT A FEW CHOICE WORDS CAN SPEAK VOLUMES! • If Ignorance Is Bliss, Why Aren’t More People Happy? • Bottled Water Is for Suckers • Clones Are People Too • At Least the War on the Environment Is Going Well • Don’t Believe Everything You Think • The Revolution Will Be Tweeted Long before blogs, tweets, and sound bites, people were telling the world how they felt in brief, blunt bursts of information plastered on the backs of their cars. Whether they’re political or religious, passionate or proud, controversial or corny, these brightly colored, boldly lettered mini manifestos are declarations of who we are, where we stand, and what we’d rather be doing. But as bestselling author and noted philosopher Jack Bowen reveals, there’s much more to the pop-culture phenomenon of bumper stickers than rolling one-liners and drive-by propaganda—no less, in fact, than a wise, funny, poignant, contentious, and truthful discourse on the human condition. Mixing pop culture with the ideas of historically prominent philosophers and scientists, If You Can Read This exposes the deeper wisdom couched behind these slogans—or, as need be, exposes where they have gone wrong. If you brake for big ideas, now’s the time.
