How it all began...

Recently I have been disgusted by "Christians" who think they are reaching the world with cheese. You have probably seen examples - the bumper sticker stating "Jesus is my co-pilot" and the shirt with "body piercing saved my life" printed under a gruesome picture of nail-pierced hands. I wonder how many positive conversations for the sake of the gospel have arisen because someone read a shirt, bumper sticker or billboard. Is this really an effective way of reaching the lost? I don't get it? This blog will be devoted to Christian Cheese. As you look at the images on this blog answer this question - what is being accomplished?

This was drawn as an outreach tool for an evangelical church in the mid-west. It was entitled "The Etch-A-Sketch Gospel."

I don't understand. What's wrong with an Etch-a-Sketch of Billy Ray Cyrus?

I applaud the repulsion to cheese in modern Christendom. I do think, however, that the 2nd commandment should give us pause on posting those images for the world to see.

If the medium is the message, as it often is, then this might be worthy of consideration.

@bryan: That made me laugh out loud.

I recently read an article at sharedignorance.blogspot.com about lame-o christian t-shirts (the kind that rip off the logos and slogans of real companies). gag me. I hate those things

Dear Christian Cheese

Thanks for your cheesy site. Having a bit of crap couple of days in crap London, UK. But your cheesy site brought a smile to my face.

Keep up the cheese work. You're saving lives.

P.S. I'm allergic to dairy products.

I had this grand idea to start a blog called "The Christian Cheese" with a very similar slant.... Well, you beat me to it. You have some great stuff on here! LOL!
