Should the Church Advertise?

Every successful business has a advertising and marketing budget and strategy. Should the Church advertise, or is that just for businesses? Jesus said He was about His Father's business. Gosh, do I need to say anything else? Church is a business, and a very serious one at that. No, not in the natural or traditional sense of being a business like everyone else. A Church's profit does not come in a monetary sense. I know the world who is not in church would like to think otherwise, as they mock and ridicule pastors and bishops and call them greedy for being blessed by God, not knowing how hard of a job it is to be a Pastor. Pastors who are about the business of their Father in Heaven are definitely not in it for the money. Maybe that's hard to understand, but it's true. You see church is a life or death (eternal) business, and people's lives are at stake. So with this being a fact, isn't it important to be able to reach God's audience? Wouldn't it be even more important for a Church to advertise than say, any other business? If souls are the profit, and its God's profit, are we being good stewards with the talent our Master gave us while He was away? Have we taken that talent and turned it into ten, or have we buried it in the church account where it is safe?
