50 Genius Church Signs That Will Make You Laugh And Think
651Kviews
While churches in Europe may be world-famous for their historical value and architecture, the ones in America are known for their notoriously funny and clever church signs.
Much like a store might write up a cheeky message on their sidewalk A-frame to entice people walking by to come inside, churches use humorous marquees to try and draw potential faithful in to fill their pews - or, now and then, just to put a smile on someone's face who might need it. The trendier the joke, the more likely they are to appeal to young audiences.
Speaking of trends, one of the latest ones to hit Twitter happens to be posting pictures of sinfully funny church signs. Though we don't necessarily agree with everything they say, we give them major points for creativity. Check out the best of the best church sign sayings, and see which ones deserve the most 'praise.'

I think they dont know it doesnt mean what they think it means. also, it could be on fire.
Definitely ignore. Why would I want religion when I can be a good person without the threat of eternal damnation?
Jesus, these are funny !

GOLLY GEE, I DO HAVE A PAYPAL!! THANK YOU SO MUCH THIS CHANGED MY LIFE OMG. I HAVE SO MUCH MALWA- I MEAN MONEY THAT I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH IT ALL. THANK YOU SO MUCH SOPHIE
I'm happy I don't see any hateful comments down there! ^.^
I know, right? It's refreshing
There was one in my town that said 'If you think life's a party, wait till you die!'
Really wish I snapped a photo of one that I saw that said 'Kneeling gives you good standing.'
Wish I'd gotten a picture of the sign I saw that had the quote "Behold, I come quickly." Yes, I am 8
Church humour! Is like a dad joke but better.
Near my home, one says "Life is cray cray, Jesus is the way way", and used to say "Jesus is my Prozac". There are some pretty funny ones!
I want to go to some of these churches
I wish my church made funny signs like these !
Puns on point! Crystal clear messages.
just a cartoon in the New Yorker, but relevant: Devil leading a guy past the fiery pit says "This is too good for you. We are sending you to telemarketing."

Jesus being an undocumented immigrant isn't so. Joseph and Mary went to Bethlehem to register for the first census ever.

A few of them seem to hint how "unchristian" and "gay-hating" it is to oppose gay marriage. But they're not telling us how out of hand nowadays is the Gaystapo. GayScoutOath.jpg
Sensational
I used to be the sign guy at my church. The sign was to be " THIS SUNDAY " on the top line. The sermon title on the middle line and the preacher's name underneath. One monday I stopped by to change the sign. I stood back to proofread it. Middle line "GOD'S HOLY PROPHET" Bottom line "JOHN DOW". or "This Sunday God's holy prophet, John Dow." I asked Brother Dow if he could check the sign with me, We changed the bottom line to "BY JOHN DOW". (Name changed to protect the innocent, or guilty, Whatever)
wish I could see these...only 3 would load
How many different churches are there in the US?
As many as there are diff peoples views on religion
Sorry to say but Picture #19, 22, 33, 36, 42, and 49 are clearly photo-shopped by internet Trolls not the Church's doings.. Try posting real things that the church does, not some made up Bullshit!
These are funny and so true!!
These are great. I loved each one of them. Keep them coming.
Creative confrontative and funny. These break a common taboo. Plenty of example of this sort of rule-breaking. Then, do it and they stomp you.
I love the European church architecture, but I miss the oneliners that make you think or just laugh. Number 7 is my personal favorite.
