Dr. Seuss Church for Children and the young at heart . . .

In the Dr. Seuss Church, all sermons would be written and presented in Dr. Seuss - like verse. Feel free to add bits of what the sermon may sound like in the comments. This could be fun. Sign in to see full entry.

Church of the Apathetic

The church for any who just do not care. They will take the path of least resistance, which is often the path of sin. And that is, ironically, the crux of their salvation, taking the path of least resistance no matter whre it leads.. Sign in to see full entry.

How About an Agnostic Church?

An agnostic church would be great, I think, because it would attract a congregation of questioners. These people, instead of worshipping, would be questioning and exploring the concepts of god and religion; they would be looking to find the path or paths that lead to religious belief. they would be...

BYOB Church . . . .

Two things about Sundays that are fairly constant, Church and Brunch. Why not combine the two? Have a BYOB (Bring Your Own Brunch) service now and then. Have the service in a room where chairs and tables can be set up and have a buffet line with pancakes, sweet rolls, eggs, bacon, toast, etc.... Sign in to see full entry.

Outdoor Church Example:

In watching the events of President Reagan's funeral unfold, I was thinking what a great church with a fantastic view the California site at the Reagan Presidential Library would make. Are their any churches that command such viewes? One could be designed with a "convertible top" to use during... Sign in to see full entry.

Church of the Gifted . . . .

This could turn out to be a church of few members. This church would be exclusively for those who had received the gifts from God, as promised by Christ (Ye shall do as I do, and even greater things....), and those mentioned in the Book of Acts (tongues, etc.). Only those with such gifts could... Sign in to see full entry.

Fat Church . . . .

For the Hefty Worshippers, Fat Church would be a combination of spiritual and physical challenges. All sermons would be in a double-time cadance, with the congregation running in place, or doing other things, such as jumping jacks, push-ups, sit-ups, etc. The pews would be replaced by mats and there...

Water Church . . . .

Where you get baptized every day! Use a large pool, issue life jackets, water-wings, whatever, to the congregation and float, dog-paddle,, swim, or just stand in the pool as the sermon is taking place. The minister could be on the diving board, or on the side of the pool. Then, at the end of the... Sign in to see full entry.

Church of the Ancient Citizens

How about a church just for the elderly, where they can go and enjoy a service with older traditions, older hymns, more comfortable pews, ramps for easy access, and a minister who understands the unique sins of the elderly? Their could be a small staff of Certified Nursing Assistants standing by to... Sign in to see full entry.
