I took this picture of a bumper sticker on someone’s tow-behind trailer over the weekend:
I hate to tell you, man, but your God is kinda lame. Our God though? Our God is an AWESOME GOD! Join us, I think your God will understand.
For some reason, I envision Will Ferrell saying “Our God is an AWESOME GOD” and it cracks me up.
Apparently, it’s a common phrase in the Christian bumper sticker world because here it is as something more flowery. The scripty font doesn’t do it for me though. It needs to be more rockin’ yet hijinxy like the one I took a picture of. I’ll bet that’s exactly what they said when they made it.
Christian Marketer 1: “We’re going to make an Our God is an AWESOME GOD bumper sticker and we are going to sell it and make millions.”
Christian Marketer 2: “OK, I like your thinking on this one but can we make it implied that our God is more rockin’ than theirs?”
CM1: “Hell yeah! I knew I hired you for a reason! But how do we do that?”
(later in the Graphics Department of Christian Bumper Stickers LLC…)
Christian Graphics Guy 1: “How the hell - forgive me Lord - do they expect us to ‘make it rock’ more?”
Christian Graphics Guy 2: “Lose the dove and change the font?”
CGG1: “Hell yeah! I knew I hired you for a reason!”
