Don't point a finger; lend a hand!
Don’t point a finger; lend a hand!

We are all our brothers’ keepers, and we should be helping others when they are in need. Too often we find ourselves searching for the one to blame for this mess in the first place. Wouldn’t our efforts be better directed by helping to find a solution instead of a scapegoat?

fwiw - I took this photo about a week after Hurricane Katrina.

In the beginning, God created Heaven and Earth

In the beginning, God created Heaven & Earth
In the beginning, God created Heaven and Earth

Where do we all come from? Isn’t that one our first unanswerable questions? The church has the answer, and they want to tell it to you on their marquee. God created us all, just as He created Heaven and Earth.

Marquee bonus: I love the construction warning cones next to this sign. It says to me, “God created the Earth, but we’re still working on improvements.”

Jesus Lives!

Jesus Lives!
Jesus Lives!

A popular message among Christians is that Jesus is alive. (It’s a big selling point: “our God is more alive that your God!”) This is one of the more colorful plates carrying that message. It’s eye-catching and happy, isn’t it?

Jesus!

Another Jesus sign… this one on Hwy 316 near Lawrenceville, GA.

Come Worship!
Come Worship!

This church is very inviting. It has a large, friendly, electronic sign inviting passers-by to come worship here. The promise of Marriage Enrichment is a nice touch, as every married couple probably seeks enrichment.
