Here is a great post by Karen Prior on the various Christian cliche's circulating. Be sure to read the comments as well-
Wow, that was a bunch of reading. Good points and I agree, to be prepared to give a reason for the hope that is within us, we have to be on guard in our “churchy” words when we are around those that don’t know Jesus. It’s God’s Word spoken in love that goes forth to change hearts not trite overdone, overworked, overused meaningless Cliché’s. Most of which twist or distort the Truth in the first place. I know the one that gets my goat is this ridiculous thought seen on many a well-meaning but non-biblical thinking person. “God is my co-pilot.” As Dr. Tony Evan has so humorously and profoundly stated, “I got news for you. That may sound nice but it aint’ Biblical. God aint’ no body’s co-pilot. If HE DON’T DRIVE, HE DON’T RIDE!
