Since moving to South Carolina I’ve been somewhat amused/bemused by the trendy names given to the new ‘community churches’. Sometimes they are just named by their local community. We have a big one here in town called ‘Brookwood’ which, I guess, is the name of the local subdivision.
It’s the ones with ‘creative’ spiritual sounding names that amuse me. I’ve spotted:
- Cornerstone
- Fresh Spring
- Living Water Fellowship
- The Heritage
- The Vineyard
- The Edge
- New Spring
At first I thought the last one was a new mattress store. This led to some creative church naming of my own. I’ve come up with:
- Hot Wings
- Hearts of Fire
- HeartBurn
- Winds of Flame
- Flame On
- Breaking Wind
- Sound of Running Water
- Chariots of Fire
- Kingdom Hall
Do readers have any other real life examples or some of their own?
