“Best Bet!”- The Red Eye >br/>

The critically-acclaimed Best Church of God returns for one unique service on Wednesday, April 8th in the heathen confines of the Chopin Theatre.

In a regrettable association with left-leaning Revolution Books (www.revcom.us), BCOG—the only church God goes to—challenges Sunsara Taylor to a battle of Good vs. Evil in the format of a “spirited” debate.

Best known for her on-air cage matches with righteous Christian Crusaders like Bill O’Reilly and Sean Hannity, the blasphemously outspoken Sunsara Taylor is a writer for Revolution newspaper and is currently on a nation-wide campus tour promoting her unholy liberal propaganda (stand strong, ye college Christian clubs!).

Like Jesus, the BCOG is returning for one spectacular appearance—and just in time for Easter. In addition to the frank back-and-forth on religion, guests will experience the trademark Best Church of God service which includes original hymns, Power Prayers®, God-filled Liturgical dance performances, Pastor Dave’s famous sermons, miraculously delicious transubstantiations, and more.

The BCOG is Chicago’s only true congregation of fundamentalist, Right-wing Christians. Followers are urged to attend this important event as the church is heading back into hiding after the service, awaiting the Rapture at the undisclosed BCOG Northern Idaho compound.
