| What's up with the "Online Church Sign?" |
I see you've noticed the "Online Church Sign" on our site's home page and you've asked yourself, What the heck is an online church sign, and why do they have one? Well, here's the story... You may have passed churches that have large signs with fun, clever, or inspiring sayings on them. These kinds of signs get churches noticed and remembered. People have been known to drive out of their way to read the new messages on these church signs when they are changed. One pastor even wrote a book containing the text of all his clever signs. Immanuel would love to have one of these signs out in front of our building to set us apart and get us noticed. Unfortunately, we have a couple of things going against us. First, the city in which our church building is located has restrictions on the size of such signs. Second, the road on which Immanuel is located, County 101, has a speed limit of 50 miles an hour. This means people are driving by our roadside sign too fast to read a message any longer than "God Loves," which is an excellent sentiment, but probably not one which will cause the reader to remember where they saw it. So our real-world sign was too small, and people were driving by too fast to read it anyway. What to do? Enter the Online Church Sign. With the advent of Immanuel's web site, RootedandGrowing.org, we were able to create a virtual church sign on our home page that can accommodate a message of any length. And, while you may be on the information superhighway, you can certainly slow down long enough to read an Online Church Sign. Both problems solved! We hope you enjoy the, hopefully, clever and/or inspiring messages you'll see on our Online Church Sign. And if you have a message you think would be good for the Online Church Sign, just let us know. We are always looking for witty and, preferably, original messages for the Online Church Sign. Thanks for slowing down to read! |
