Book Description
From hand-rendered folk signs to high-dollar church marquees, religious messages and imagery saturate the landscape of the American South. In With Signs Following, photographer and southern studies scholar Joe York introduces readers to the role of artistic, witty advertising in southern churches. In seventy black-and-white images of religious signs and other ephemera, he simultaneously presents the factual while encouraging reflection and introspection. Though York's pictures speak volumes, With Signs Following features an equally compelling essay by York. This piece seeks the stories of the sign makers through informal interviews. The combination of images and text offers an insightful, humorous, historically grounded perspective on one of the South's most familiar scenes. In collecting images of religious roadside signs from across the region and interviews with the evangelicals who put them there, Joe York shows us the "Christ-haunted" South as it has never before been considered. Joe York is a freelance photographer and a producer and director of documentary films for the Center for Documentary Projects and the Southern Foodways Alliance at the University of Mississippi. Charles Reagan Wilson is director of the Center for the Study of Southern Culture at the University of Mississippi.

Book Description
The Signs that Follow By: Raphael Vasquez A major theme in the Bible is God’s use of signs to communicate with humanity. In The Signs that Follow, author Raphael Vasquez provides a plethora of scriptural support for the significance of signs for the Church and Christian believers. He also describes the biblical account of Ananias and Sapphira and the lessons it teaches about the importance of obedience, along with discussion of the deeds and doctrine of the Nicolaitans. Vasquez argues persuasively that Scripture has provided believers with signs that prove beyond a shadow of doubt the validity of their religion (faith). Vasquez’s hope is that serious readers will examine themselves to see if they are truly followers of the Lord (1 Corinthians 11:31, 2 Corinthians 13:5). This nation is in desperate need of the gospel message of the Lord
