'Jesus Loves Porn Stars' bible nixed

U.S. Bible printers are rejecting a special printing for a ministry trying to sway the pornography industry with the slogan: "Jesus Loves Porn Stars."

Pastors Mike Foster and Craig Gross, founders of *********.com, say the brand name would further their work. They regularly pass out thousands of copies of the New Testament at conferences, trying to persuade participants to switch from porn to Jesus, The Los Angeles Times reports.

Foster and Gross say the church needs to use new ways of reaching its flock, including avenues that may be shocking.

*********.com paid the American Bible Society to print 10,000 bibles with the "Jesus Loves" slogan, but the printer won't do it. In a letter to Foster and Gross the organization calls it "misleading and inappropriate for a New Testament."
