Please–for the sake of our cause–STOP with the pithy sayings!\u00c2\u00a0 I see so many boards like this while driving and I just get disgusted with our own piety.\u00c2\u00a0 You will NEVER reach the lost if you berate them and treat them like a lower life-form.\u00c2\u00a0 I know you don’t think you’re doing that, but you ARE!<\/p>\n
Sometimes these sayings are “cutsy”, but at least half of the time, they mean NOTHING to people who are unchurched and don’t understand the Christian “lingo” and “jargon”.\u00c2\u00a0 The other half of the time, they are downright insulting.<\/p>\n

Oh, by the way, CHECK YOUR SPELLING!\u00c2\u00a0 I’ve seen many pithy sayings that actually had misspelled words…that’s just pitiful.\u00c2\u00a0 I would NEVER even TRY a church that proudly displayed a typo on their road sign.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
