There is a wonderful website out there, churchsigngenerator.com, and they had a page of actual pictures of church signs taken across the United States. This was one of them, and I pray it is a fake, yet--sadly--I don't find it to be too far from the way many Christians act towards those GOD continues to seek. No wonder so many people are hostile against Christianity! Dan Kimball said that the United States is one of the hardest mission fields simply because so many people have a negative view of Christianity. Missionaries here must work two times as hard, to strip down the negative connotations of Christianity and then reveal the beauty of Christianity. It is a sad truth that Christianity is seen as a religion of yelling, judgment, and condemnation when it is, in its fullest form, a life of love, hope, peace, joy, and purpose. It is seen as being invited into a clan that condemns others and forbids enjoyment; Christianity is really an invitation into the GOD-life, an invitation into the kingdom of GOD.

It is my passion to be a missionary in the United States, wherever GOD may call me, to work to show people what Jesus is all about, to advance the kingdom through the bars, the harlot-houses, through the gay and lesbian communities, even into the fundamentalist camps. I hope to be a tool of GOD to advance His kingdom into the lives of those everywhere, no matter their ethnicity or gender or sexual orientation. It is my desire to take GOD's message to people who have never heard it--and to people who have heard it too much. It is my desire to show the beauty of GOD, the beauty of Christ, the beauty of the gospel.
