You've most likely driven past church signs with removable messages on them. There are certain messages that seem to pop up everywhere; have been passed around online for others' use. Many of these messages strive to be cute and catchy, and most can be quite cheesy and speak more to those who are already a part of church culture than those outside.Church sign messages are also ripe for parody, and I decided to have some fun on Twitter last week by creating a hashtag called #lesscatchychurchsigns. The concept is what it sounds like: what might be some sign messages that wouldn't be quite cute and catchy enough to put up on the marquee? The meme caught on, and people seemed to have a lot of fun with it. Here are some of my contributions:
