Church signs are a staple of small-community life. They’re one of the first things you see when you drive through a cute town center and often give you an idea of what kind of neighborhood you’ve just entered.

But most of the time, they’re more than a way for religious institutions to reach out to people, share the gospel, and resonate with their town’s sense of community. These roadside signs can be a valuable and unexpected source of… entertainment. You know what we’re talking about. Those short, extra clever, and sometimes quite ambiguous church sign sayings you can’t help but look at, hoping to find a rib-tickling pun or joke. 

After all, you know what they say: if you’ve got it, flaunt it. And if your church has also got a funny bone, consider yourself lucky — making people laugh is an art form.

Now, thanks to the internet’s insatiable appetite for all things strange and humorous, we can look at some of the most hilarious church signs from around the country! Can you imagine the days before the internet when you couldn’t just search for clever church sign ideas for your church’s outdoor panel? Crazy how they could come up with them with no help.

These funny church signs will have you cracking up, whether it’s a clever play on words or a pun-tastic double meaning. Only one thing is sure — these people knew exactly what they were doing!

I have no problem with that list. However, I fail to do "no exceptions " . God better love Pedophiles, homophobes, racists, rapist etc, because I am unable to, neighbour or not.

Loving someone doesn't mean condoning optional behaviour ( like hatred racism or violence)

What thy witch neighbor? Hindu neighbor? Pagan neighbor? Hispanic neighbor? I expect they're included and there wasn't enough room on the sign. Just saying. And am I forgetting anyone else?

I would probably not loathe organized religions to the deep degree I do if this was common throughout & that there were only a handful that’s bat s**t crazy, judgmental, and hypocritical a******s.

You have to also remember that the crazy ones are also the loud and outspoken ones most often. So that's what the world hears from Christian. The good and loving Christians usually keep their head down, are humble and treat others with kindness, so you never hear from them.

As a Wiccan, I consistently get people trying to convert me to Christianity and it always feels like I'm being talked down to. If someone came at me with this sort of message instead, I'd be more willing to listen.

Cool! I fall into two of these categories! Um… at one time three, and possibly four, but the odds aren't good. How many categories do you fall under?

Society seems to know better than Christians what Christians should be. Everyone here commenting how awesome this is. It is awesome. But it's also literally the most important thing Jesus taught us to do, and for some reason it's as if Christians don't know this. They get so caught up in traditional church and rules, and trying to be better than everyone else that they forget to love people. Christianity is not meant to serve you, you are meant to serve Christianity. My life has been nothing but difficult, but that's life, I still want to serve the will of God and love people, and help them not feel as crappy as I've had to feel. The word Christian should be associated with love, kindness, humility, selflessness, and strength, which is not what it's associated with today. It's totally backwards. Every church should have this sign.

I have no issues with the sentiment of the sign, but maybe use a different colour for the 'No Exceptions'. For a minute, with the way the light was on my screen, I didn't see the word 'No'. But hey, maybe in person the colour difference between font and background is more evident.

The Bible is against disabled people. They are not allowed at the altar of any Christian church according to the Bible. People with flat noses, crushed testicles, etc. are not allowed the altar. The obviously evil discrimination is in black and white. F-(k the Bible!

Rules for priests of the Old Testament. Have you read the whole chapter? How about the part of burning of women? And you have yet to tell me which Christian church this applies to. That is not following the teaching of Jesus, it would not be a Christian Church. Sorry, your point is not valid.

When other Christians are being homophobic, I ask “When Jesus comes again, will he accept those who loved despite the hate or those who hated?”

Basically, don’t be a hypocrite, or you’re NOT going to get the result you think you’re going to get.
