The Restored Church in the city of Wilkes-Barre erected the huge message, which reads: "'I Love SEX' - God". It comes ahead of the church's upcoming sermon series focused on the Song of Solomon.
Church pastor Dan Nichols told the Huffington Post: "What we want to do is let people know that the Bible is relevant to everyday life. "When it comes to sexuality... God is the the inventor, author and creator of it."
Despite attracting attention with the billboard, the 26-year-old cleric said it's reception within the Christian community has been generally negative:
"Evangelicals can be pretty divisive amongst themselves, we've gotten a lot of flack from other Christians." However, Nichols told a local Pennsylvania radio station: “If the culture can be so bold, I think the church can be so bold and speak directly on the subject and be up front about it."
