Because I grew up in the South, I used to see Jack Prick tracts all the time. I most often remember seeing them wet and stained on the floors of public restrooms, where they would stick to your feet. Symbolism that works so well for those things, on so many levels...

I'm pretty sure that shit-awful movie "God's Not Dead" was based on the Jack Chick tract "Big Daddy." It has all the same elements - bombastic atheist professor shown up by Xian student, etc. etc.

Here it is in all its glory:
