    Here is what I'd like to see on some church sign.

    "Get right or get left!"

    "No power, No church"

    At first I thought that they had finally figured it out. Then I realized that it was because the electricity was out so they didn't go to chruch that day.

    Really irritated by one of the "lite" churches here with a big "TRY JESUS" on their sign. Yep. Try it, maybe it'll work for you, maybe not.

    Old one was effective (hey, I still remember it)

    A great one that I saw in Tennga, GA:

    Experience is a hard teacher...first she gives the test, then she gives the lesson.

    And, from the same church:

    It is hard to rock the boat when you are pulling on the oars.

    In Christ,
    Trotter

    How about a sign at an IFB church that read something like hamburger coupons will be handed out at the service.

    Another one at the same church announced to come and get their stuffed animals. I talked with a friend of mine and he told me two years later the church is still doing it.

    Our church is right on the freeway. Most things we put on the sign gets little or no notice by the 50,000 cars that pass by that way every day. But when we put (my favorite!) up there, BOY the phones calls!!!

    "Homosexuality is an alternate DEATH STYLE!

    That really stirs the bee hive.

    In His service;

    At one church, they like to put my sermon titles on the board outdoors. One time it was"

    The biggest sinner in Kingston exposed tonight.

    The church was in full attendance that night. This is a university-oriented church in downtown Kingston:

    Pot-puffers; Pot-bellies and Pot Holes.

    Cheers,

    Jim

    Outside a local church that meets in a converted theatre:

    "One Lord to rule them all"

    I kinda like it!
