That's gonna leave a mark.
Do tell...There's a story behind this 3-ft wide and 5 ft tall sign. Years ago it used to hang in our sanctuary, and the removal of it is the stuff of those things that cause Church splits, lol.

I was a young fella and fairly immature Christian just figuring out how the church thang worked. That sign had lights in it that would change to reflect the amount of progress towards the projected goal of giving to missions. Pretty high-tech, eh?Do tell...
I think it’s actually a nice looking sign. Great woodwork.I was a young fella and fairly immature Christian just figuring out how the church thang worked. That sign had lights in it that would change to reflect the amount of progress towards the projected goal of giving to missions. Pretty high-tech, eh?All things being equal, the concept was a decent idea.
The sign was prominently displayed near the front platform by The pianist. It had been made by an elderly and godly man who is now with the Lord, a very kind and gentle man, one of the best Christians I've ever personally known. The image of the church that is on there actually is a decent resemblance of the exterior of our church.
The old school contingent of the church was none pleased when the new young and brash pastor decided that the sign looked "dated" and that it needed removed. The resulting furor was as if we were deciding to add a woman, assistant pastor, or, God forbid, switch from the KJV to the NIV, lol. Things eventually subsided, calmer heads prevailed and there was no church split.![]()
Did you get them to at least switch to the NKJV?I was a young fella and fairly immature Christian just figuring out how the church thang worked.
