#149 Calling the lobby the narthex
By
Stephanie Drury
Even the warehouse-iest of church buildings call their warehouse-y lobbies the narthex as it perhaps lends a bit of elegance, like saying fo-yay instead of foy-yer (the latter pronunciation being common in the Bible belt).
#147 Saying “Great insight”
By
Stephanie Drury
“Great insight” is the response of choice when a person in Christian culture says something spiritually poignant.
#145 Saying that they “married out of their league”
By
Stephanie Drury
Men in Christian culture like to say they have "married up" or "married out of their league." They make a point to speak of their wife in glowing terms as often as possible.
#140 Saying “hanging” instead of “hanging out”
By
Stephanie Drury
Christian culture tends to omit the word "out" from the term "hanging out." They just "hang."
