The local newspaper had an article this morning about church signs -- the large, often illuminated, signboards in front of churches on which they post clever sayings. It appears that there are internet sites where you can get these to save the trouble of making them up yourself, if you are the one in charge of the sign, and there is also a book coming out with a collection. Below are some which were quoted, which I thought might be found amusing. I don't offer them for their theological content.

God has not gone on vacation and left you in charge.

Where will you be spending eternity? Smoking or nonsmoking?

Don't give up -- Moses was a basket case too.

Lord, help me be the person my dog thinks I am.

God's last name is not "damn".

I don't doubt your existence. -- God


The newspaper article says that such signs are most commonly seen in the Bible Belt. Jackie, I think you are the only regular from this part of the country. Any contributions?
