You’d think I’d eventually run out of material for this weekly series I’ve been doing. Fortunately for me, there is no apparent end to the phenomenon that is the bad church sign.

The person who invents a spell-check app for church signs will be very wealthy.

Nothing like being called out when you're already uncomfortable about being there.

No arrogance there. No sir.

This is a pastoral relationship that started well.

Nice to know there's a church out there that can speak on behalf to the Prince of Darkness

I actually like this one.

 Christian Piatt is the creator and editor of BANNED QUESTIONS ABOUT THE BIBLE and BANNED QUESTIONS ABOUT JESUS. He co-created and co-edits the “WTF: Where’s the Faith?” young adult series with Chalice Press, and he has a memoir on faith, family and parenting — PREGMANCY: A Dad, a Little Dude and a Due Date — set to hit book stores everywhere on April 1, 2012.
