Let's see...how can we make the world think that Christ followers are the most cheesy group of people you'll ever meet? Hmmm....
I know.... let's invent these one-liners and put them on our signs for everyone to see. That's sure to bring the masses through our front doors. They'll want to know who we are because the sayings outside our church are so clever. Our pews will be filled, and in turn, they'll learn about Jesus.
We can say things like:
- Make your eternal reservations now-- smoking or non-smoking.
- Give Satan an inch and he'll be a ruler.
- PSALMS read here.
- This is a CH__CH. What's missing?
What do you think?

I feel closer to God by just reading this post.
I still like:
3 days + 1 cross = 4 given!!!
Sorry, that last comment was from me. I didn't know Ashley was still signed in on her Taylor blog account.
I initially cringed at all these signs too. Some are definitely more clever than others! But, then my neighbor friend (who is definitely a 'seeker') told me that she ALWAYS reads the signs at one of our local churches that has this kind of sign out front. She said, "They really make me think." And she was being serious. So, I guess that means God can work in the corny stuff too. :)
For three years I drove past a church that had the CHEESIEST signs. Oh my goodness, I wanted to THROW UP. I hate this part of the Christian subculture!
Of course, you could fight back by making your own...

I HAVE to get my mom to read your blog. She hates these signs, too. Her favorite recently? On a church sign around town: "You think it's hot outside? Hell is hotter!" Way to spread the Gospel!
