This week’s church sign states:
“GOD WANTS TO KNOW YA’LL BETTER. IF YOU HAVE TIME. IF NOT, HE LOVES YOU ANYWAY!”
I love the South. I love the word “ya’ll.” Something tells me this sign isn’t located in the North.
Do you have any even more Southern sounding phrase that you would like to see on a church sign?
Travis Agnew serves as the Lead Pastor of Rocky Creek Church in Greenville, SC. His most recent book is Just (About) Married.
There are two great things about this sign. 1) If you don’t have time for God, that’s cool, He still loves you (so I guess you’ll be ok). 2) and this is the best, is the church’s name: “The First Baptist Church IN AMERICA.” Too good. And if that’s the case, it isn’t in the South, but Rhode Island. If it’s not in Rhode Island, that makes it even better, since it claims to be founded by Roger Williams. If it is in Rhode Island, that makes the use of “y’all” even more classic. Maybe my favorite church sign ever.
