Below you will find a list of the messages displayed on the Christ Church sign displayed by the street in front of the building. We’ve gotten many comments on these quotes over the years and have had several people visit us after they have been challenged by these messages while driving down League Line Road past the church.
The list you see here is partial at present. Please ponder and enjoy each of these as we work to build the list from Pastor Dan’s file of thought provoking quotes.
