I’m one of those people who often makes fun of church signs. Many of them kill me, mainly because they are so poorly thought out and corny that any intended Good News Message is lost on me.
For instance, one of my all-time favorites read:
If you can read this, you can go to heaven.
I suppose if you can’t read, can’t see or can’t read English you are damned. I know I’m putting way too much thought into these signs, but it’s something I do.
That said, there is the little church on the Rankin County backroads I travel from Florence to Brandon all the time. It usually has great signs. And the one it had this weekend was the greatest I’ve seen.
Because it’s taken from a distance, it’s hard to read. Let me save you the visit to Flickr. It reads:
When Jesus spoke
people often asked
Who Dat Who Dat
Some may say, “That’s bad,” or, “That’s a bit blasphemous.” But I like it. It shows character and fun. And you can still go to heaven regardless of whether or not you read it (or cheered for the Saints).
