Many of the churches in my area have those marquee signs that you can change the message on from time-to-time. I think many of these churches thought this was a great idea until they realized that they need to come up with something each week to put on it. I am not sure if there is a service they all use but the messages seem to be getting more and more hokey. Here are church sign messages that I have seen that have had me shaking my head:

What is missing in CH–CH… UR
This is a classic but I still see it from time-to-time on a church.  It is trendy because it uses “UR” just like all the kids are using in their text messages.  When I see this I just LOL.

Life is great, eternal life is better
To the average person this sign makes no sense.  What is “eternal life”?  Is that what The Highlander had?  Do I really want that?  Plus, my life kind sucks right now.  Have you heard of this recession thing?

“      “
Yes, a blank sign.  This screams, “Nothing happening here, keep driving”.  At least put your service times up there or the pastor’s message title for this week.

Don’t be a pew potato - God
This one was sent in by by sister-in-law, Stephanie.  It belongs on this list though.  Did someone forget to tell this church that the whole couch potato thing came and went in the 80s.  On top of that can you really see God saying this?

God is the rock that doesn’t roll
I have seen this church sign twice this week so I am guessing it is a “sign” that I was supposed to mention it.  I get the obvious message from this sign, but what is the underlying message?  I think it might be, “Our church is boring and you will never see a set of drums here.  Coat and tie required.”

I’ll update this page as I encounter more of these.  If you see one that needs to posted here let me know and I will add it.
