Welcome to Church: No Luggage Required

A Hilarious Message for Visitors and Churchgoers Alike

Welcome to Church (mitchteemley.com)Dear pastors, teachers, and church drama groups: When I first set foot inside a church, I wasn’t sure what I believed, or how to behave. Would I have the wrong views? The wrong version of the Bible? Would I use the wrong lingo? In other words, I was dragging a lot of “luggage” with me! So a few years back, I wrote a Saturday Night Live-style scene to put church visitors at ease, and encourage church members to bring their friends. Apparently it struck a chord, because it’s now regularly presented at churches all over North America! I also filmed a video version (below), and it too has been shown at churches everywhere!

  5. One of us is right, and history will decide

  6. This is great, Mitch…I’m wondering if my stacks of Bibles would amuse you. It’s a small apartment, so they’re crowded.
    I was nothing if not a student of the Word, had to be able to look up stuff in all the different versions/translations.

    Years passed, I still loved God’s Word, but cataracts made reading a pain–so I ordered the larger (and Super Large) font Bibles, and donated my smaller print ones to a friend who had the perfect place for them…a senior center’s reading room.

    More time passed…I’m glad & grateful I learned about the Blue Letter Bible app before buying the BLB in all it’s faux-leather beauty.
    Now I can read all day with ease from my tablet…and since I was sure I needed 3 different reading plans, I now have 3 Samsung tablets.
    Call me crazy–I’m in love with JESUS! God bless you, Brother.
