Some Christianese…
So I’m putting together our quarterly newsletter/paper for our church (it’s called the Chronicle and you can see past versions here), and I need to put some light hearted stuff on the back page. My idea was that I could put some Christianese terms on the back like the ABC702 Dags Dictionary… but I need a little help…
One term particular to Christians at All Saints Petersham is
- Bazzism (adj.) – Those phrases or mannerisms common to the rector of All Saints Petersham: Antony Barraclough, aka. Bazz. Eg. “How hard could it be?“, “In whom do you believe?” (preceding the saying of a creed), “You’re fired.“
This is really the only idea I have at this stage, but I’m sure the creative minds that stop by thechroniclesof from time to time are much more witty and inventive…
I go to print on Thursday, so get creative people!

Christianese words/phrases that just came to mind are:
“fellowshipping”
“testimony”
“it’s just a season”
“I feel like God’s telling me…”
Calling people “Brother” when neither of you are related and neither of you are black.
“Calling”
“Got a real burden for”
“Annointed”
I was trying to work out how to type something in tongues but then thought it might be offensive.
“the word”
“welcome ministry”
“those 8:00am-ers”
