Rejected Church Slogans
(Filed under: Off the Wall)by Mike Atkinson, Guest Blogger
Dean Lusk, worship leader at Wall Highway Baptist Church in Madison, Ala., was recently working on a new slogan for the church when inspiration struck: "I originally thought of this as a 'Top 10 Rejected Church Slogans' project, but I only got to seven of them before life happened and I got back to work."
He came up with some pretty funny slogans. I bet the bright readers of CMS could come up with a few more... eh? (link via Wittenburg Door)

Real bumpersticker I saw awhile back:
Jesus Love You...
Everyone else thinks your a jerk
(okay, it -may- not have said "jerk" but that's the PG version)

I went to a church for a time that slipped into semi-cult status. Their slogan was,
"You never knew church could be like this"
Boy were they right.

I attended a church who had the record of the cheeziest slogans ever. Their youth ministry was called TURN, and they actually used the Turn or Burn slogan for their catchphrases. haha! here's a few more..
Come HOME!
(I was actually on my way thanks)
We care about you.
(Wow, that took hours of thought)
Glory to God!
(okay? yeah great catchphrase)
Get right or get left.. People reaching people.
(contradictary?)
Don't hang out with losers
(Actually the phrase of the church!)
We will touch you like noone else has.
(no comment)
For People Like You.
(I'm not so great really)
Have you prayed today?
(marketing at it's best)
Sign broke. Message Inside.
(Okay. What moron who just read the sign believes that?)

A couple of years ago, our church had a >>mens'
Name: Tulips (!!!)
(from the five points of Calvinism)
Total depravity
Unconditional election
Limited atonement
Irresistible grace
Perseverance of the saints
