How Christians Are Like Bad Drivers

I posted this originally on my Facebook blog and it got a lot of response.  Had people thinking of Backseat Drivers, roadrage, etc

I do a lot of driving. Besides living in Monroe County and working,
going to Church and almost everything else in Macon; my job has me
driving 2-3 days a week up to Marietta to work at Dobbins Air Reserve
Base. Besides that, the company I work for has a contract that can on
any given day have me driving to the Florida state line, near any of
the other surrounding states or anywhere in between. The point of all
that is to say – I do a lot of driving – and it occurred to me that in
some ways some Christians are like bad drivers.

CONSTANT TURN SIGNAL CLICKER – This Christian sees the signs of the
times in everything and points it out to everyone. Not just about
earthquakes, famines, and war but they see the signs in a local traffic
accident and other mundane events.

THE SLOW DRIVER – The Christian equivalent to this driver is the person
who won’t move from their current place or do anything new unless God
tells them to do it. They haven’t figured out that God has already
given them a lot of direction in the word and insist that they get
direction for everything they do from God.

SLOW DRIVER (BLUE HAIR VERSION) - There is another type of slow driver
and those are the people that insist that we can never do anything
different from the way that we have always done it. They will threaten
to withhold their time and giving to keep something new from coming to
their church.

THE SPEEDER – You have seen them blow through your church. From unsaved
visitor to the emotional saving event to eager volunteer to burned out
and gone in a matter of weeks.

THE SWERVER – Never content with a church for more than a month or two
they speed through and are off to the next one – sometimes leaving
chaos in their wake.

THE RUBBERNECKER – Is there for the show and to be entertained. The
word is not as important as the presentation. This person thrives in a
church with a lot of behind the scenes drama and controversy.

I think there is a little bit of some of these in a lot of us – the
trick is to realize when we are being a bad driver and then correct it.

These are all the ones I come come up with off the top of my head – are there any others you can think of?

And a little bit of video humor -
