Bad church sign
January 26th, 2006Normally I’ll leave these to Scott Slayton, who posts them regularly, but I saw one this morning that was so bad I had to post it myself:
“If God had a refrigerator, your picture would be on it.”

What happened to posting scripture on church signs? We have promises that God’s word is alive, active, and won’t return void. Reminds me of something I read a while back…
“Christianity is not a brand — it’s a relationship whose depth can’t be reduced to slogans. Any attempt to do so will only make our faith appear thin and open to parody. To outwardly communicate our Christianity, we must use the oldest and best method — our love.”
Man, that’s a great one Tim. The worst local one I’ve seen is a summertime one, “Our church has prayer-conditioning.”
Western Kentucky has got to be the church sign heaven. Drive around Paducah some time and then head west to Wickliffe. Unless things have changed in 10 years, you’ll see a slew of witty stuff.
I saw a Church sign in Springfield, IL that read “Who’s Your Daddy.”
I hate it when churches put stupid stuff like this on their signs. The worst one I have seen is “God answers knee-mail.” Wow.
Bumper sticker theology wil get you into trouble every time. When being clever and cute is more important than being faithful and true, what can we expect?
Why even have message signs?
One of our local churches had this one, “The King lives, and he’s a hunk-a hunk-a burning love for you.”
Of course it’s better to be on God’s refrigerator than on His milk carton.
