Sad....but true =)

My cousin sent this to me in and email and I laughed a lot at it because it's true!! Hope you like it!! Leave comments!! <333 ------You know you're a Church of Christ if... --You have a relative, friend, or mentor at Harding. --You know what Fort God and/or Six Flags over Jesus is. --Your bible comes equipped with your birthday, name in gold, and date of baptism. --What do you mean instruments in worship? --You have a poster of Jeff Walling. --You stand next to a hot guy incase you have to "hug, hug a friend, hug a friend next to ya." --Your ‘‘what I did last summer essay” involves Mexican children, VBS, or building houses. --Bikini is not in your vocabulary. --15+ hour bus trips are a way of life. --Retreat romances are not uncommon. --Yes, vegetables can talk…. And sing! --Instead of playing homemaker, you played communion --Your Sunday lunch motto is ‘’Beat the Baptist’’ --The closest you get to dancing is when you sing “you have turned my mourning into dancing!’’ --Instrumental music leads to dancing, and dancing leads to making babies! --You own at least one shirt with a bible verse on it. --You own Harding, Abeliene, Freed, or Lipscomb apparel. --You get laughed at when you explain you’re past/future college… and all its rules.. --You grew up thinking contribution was part of the Lord's Supper. --You know the 1st, 2nd and 4th verses to nearly every song in the book. --You were 18 years old before you knew that "guardguideanddirectus" was not one word. --You know exactly what song I'm talking about when I ask you to turn to number 728b. --You immediately reach for your wallet when you hear the phrase, "Now, separate and apart from the Lord's Supper..." --When asked to bring a symbol of your religion to elementary school, you brought a casseroll. --You always carry an extra mint or a piece of gum for "after communion." --You have no idea what "mixed/co-ed swimming" is. --Deciphering Elizabethan voice in English literature / Shakespeare is no problem due to years of reading the KJV . . . --Your hands (not the rest of your body) have ever been blessed for preparing the meal. --You can quote Acts 2:38. --You adamantly believe that the name of this list should scripturally be, "You know you're a member of the church of Christ if . . ." --You grew up playing "baptism" as one of your swimming pool games. --You use "Freed" as a noun, not a verb. --You've been told "That's my pew" by someone older than your grandmother. --You think "progressive" refers to those in the church who want a sound system and PowerPoint. --You've been to a wedding or a funeral where "the invitation" was offered. --You're about to tell a friend at church about the new Casting Crowns CD you got, but then the oldest elder at your church sits down in the pew behind you and you say, "I'll tell you later." --You don't have to ask where Lubbuck, Abilene, Searcy, or Henderson are. --Your granddaddy was an elder, your dad is an elder, your uncle is an elder, and your brother is scared. --Your younger sister is commenting on Swiss cheese and you break out in "Holy, Holy, Holy." --You know what it's like to wear a swimsuit, a (DARK!!!) t-shirt, and (DARK) knee-length shorts in the water (and shoes, where applicable). --Your church refused to hold a wedding because they wanted instrumental music and dancing at the reception. --After any baptism, you pause uncomfortably and look around before you clap to make certain that you're not the only one. --You have heard Jeff Walling give the same sermon at different events with a few years in between. --You have never seen the first half of the Super Bowl. --You have bets on which youth group couples will get married first. --You sign all letters, e-mails, love notes, and Facebook messages 'In Him' or 'With Christian Love'." --Don McLaughlin is your hero. --You've seen someone pitch a song with a tuning fork. --When you see a ball of yarn, you know everything's about to get warm and fuzzy.... tears will be involved. --You can only recite the books of the bible if they're to the old familiar Sunday school melodies. --Your youth group goes everywhere in a 15 passenger van. --People avoid the front row because that is reserved for the sinners who need to repent after the sermon. --You know the sermon is just about over by the sound of people shuffling pages, looking for the invitation song. --You feel the need to have 4-part harmony in EVERY song you sing... even Happy Birthday. --Every sermon you've ever heard ends with "...while we stand and sing." --You rekindle old friendships just to get towards the front of the potluck line. (Yeah, you know you've done it.) --You have been warned about your consideration of Lipscomb and Pepperdine.
