"Strength in prayer is better than length in prayer."

I'm pretty sure there's a "That's what she said!" joke hidden in there somewhere, but I can't quite put my finger on it...

"Redemption, God's recycling plan!"

"There are some questions that can't be Googled. Read the Bible."
"Questions from Side 1: Who am I? Why am I here? Where am I going?"

submitted by Jennifer N.
Also: Why am I forced to read this second sign in my rear view mirror?!?


It also might help if they do a little research. A Google search of those terms leads to a Christian website on the first page of search results each time.

So...maybe they CAN be answered by Google?

My new friend Lady Snark is posting a series of what she considers "Greatest Hits" of Crummy Church Signs. She's a new fan, she asked nicely, I've been pretty lax on my posting lately, etc., etc.... so I caved.
I'm glad I did. These blasts from the past also include some of her own commentary, which I gotta say is pretty snarky. She comes by her nom de plume honestly. Go check it out.

"What do we do with idiots and weirdos"

Instead of kissing the pope's ring, you kiss a jewel-encrusted cane.

"Preaching on our porch. O Lord what a morning!"
submitted by frequent contributor Sarah R.
Attendance was down, so they rented out their sanctuary to a rummage sale and held their service on the porch.

All of His classmates think He's a bit of a know-it-all...

And this sign comes from whatever's on the floor of that same stable...

The bad news: You're Number 2. And we all know what "Number 2" is....

Why, why why?

So I'm sitting at home today popping pain relievers and with an ice-pack firmly affixed to my noggin. I took a baseball off the temple in practice yesterday, and am not good for too much but sitting and typing. Hopefully these snarks make sense and are not too influenced by the massive amount of pain relievers tearing through my veins.

I'll be fine, though. The ER was impressed by my overall hard-headedness. Regular readers won't be surprised...

"Male by birth - men by choice"
submitted by frequent contributor Duane Brown
Body by Jake.


(The name of this church combined with the message on the sign makes me giggle incessantly. Maybe it should say "Male by birth. 12-year old boys by choice.")

---------------------------------------------------------------------

"Close out the world for just a moment."
submitted AND reviewed by frequent contributor Duane Brown
Reboot, then double-click on the world to start over.

A friend of mine (and former student!) wrote an excellent blog post.

My brother-in-law stumbled on this excellent post as well.

Good reading, both. Check them out.

"I love my church because it's sort of like the Wizard of Oz - It's about having a heart and a brain. And courage!"
submitted by William S.
In addition, during every service the parishioners start thinking to themselves "There's no place like home..."

--------------------------------------------------------------------

"Hang out with Jesus. He hung out for you."
submitted by frequent contributor Rev. Wes Kenney
Had Jesus' crucifixion taken place in France in the 1700's, this sign would read: "Lose your mind for Jesus, He lost His head for you!"

In other words: Completely tasteless.

----------------------------------------------------------

"Forgive and foreclose."
submitted by frequent contributor S.K. Sutton
This church learned the hard way not to agree to adjustable-rate tithing.

"Jesus is an investment that never loses interest."
submitted by frequent contributor Suzannah P.
Check that: I'm pretty sure He lost interest in this sign pretty quickly.


Suzannah does a great job deconstructing this sign on her blog. Go check it out.

--------------------------------------------------------

Many, many folks sent in a funny church sign exchange that is supposedly a true "story". Rather than posting the whole mess here, I'll link to it. Check it out, it's pretty good stuff.
