Church Sign Theology
During my travels, I enjoy checking out church marques. Most of them make me laugh, but some are funny enough to actually make me stop the car, get out and take a picture. I have added some to this blog so you can decide for yourself. Don't get me wrong, I think it is great for churches to share the Gospel, and if your church feels their sign is the best way to do that, then go ahead. But sometimes I think we take it a bit too far. Sometimes the lessons we teach are not the lessons we intended to teach. Just use these 3 for an example:
1. Marler Baptist (Courtesy of Travis Cheek)
Lesson Learned: We must use weird words when we are at church.
2. Gates Ave. Fellowship (Where I stayed for the summer in Mississippi...the sign had the same message it did from the summer before.)
Lesson Learned: Your church sign can be dusty, but your Bible cannot.
3. Charity Independent Baptist Church (This is my favorite)
Lesson Learned: The Scripture may be puzzling, but at least their theological beliefs are clear!
Hope you enjoyed the signs...if you have any you would like to share, please pass them on.
