You’ve got to go to the Stuff Christians Like website. I’ve included a couple of my favorites below…
- “Putting a a God spin on popular secular ideas”- Oh the irony. One of our favorite things is taking popular secular ideas and putting a coat of God flavor on them. Case in point, that Adidas logo that has been creatively titled with “Add Jesus.” And yet, here I’ve done the same exact thing. I took the wildly popular site “stuff white people like” and tweaked it just a little to make it about people that worship God. But “creatively borrowing” ideas from the world is only one of the things we Christians like to do.
- “Dating God instead of me”- One of the things that Christians at my college liked to say if they didn’t want to date you was, “I’m not dating anyone right now, I’m dating God.” So the guy, who really just wanted to play mini golf or have a bowl of pasta at the Olive Garden, has to find a way to get you to break up with God. That’s a tough assignment but I think it reflects something we like even more, which is bringing God into situations he might not be that concerned with. Granted, he should be infused in every part of your life, but before that guy asked you out, did the Alpha and Omega really say to you, “By all means, do not eat a bottomless salad with Mark Robinson. I have spoken.” Sometimes we like to use God to get out of stuff, like bad dates, just like I use my kids to get out of going to boring parties, e.g. “I’d love to go to your baby shower, but I couldn’t get a babysitter. It’s a shame, a dang shame.”
- “Famous Christians”- Although the jury is still out on Stephen Baldwin, one of our favorite things is Famous Christians. I have to admit, Scientology has kind of been kicking our butt for a few years. I mean they got Tom Cruise, John Travolta, Kirstie Alley and Giovanni Ribisi. They even got Beck, dear sweet sounding Beck. But we’re not that concerned, want to know why? Because we have Bono. He’s worth like 18 other normal celebrities. Seriously, he is most of the most active, productive people on the planet. I almost wouldn’t be surprised if at some point he admitted that he had been cloned in the late 90s. How else can you explain his work in Africa, his concert tours and his ability to regularly put out good albums? Thank God for Bono.
Check it out. It’s amazingly wonderful.
