A local pastor is taking a different approach tonight to get more people in church. Hunter Plaza in Westland is just one of the places where you find a sign that asks "don't like church?" Members of "Ekklesia Chruch" have posted hundreds of them around town. They want people to create videos that explains why they hate church. The winner gets $500. The church's pastor tells us the effort is to get more people to attend services.

"If you look at Jesus, he hung out with tax collectors, prostitutes, drunks, people who hated religion, and heard their stories. We figured we should do the same."
