Vote for the reader chapter title that will go in the Stuff Christians Like book.

Jul 11th by Jon

Voting is officially closed. Thanks so much for commenting. I’m going to count the votes and post the winner in a few days.

A few weeks ago I held a “name this chapter” contest. (The chapter in question was about whether it’s possible to unsubscribe to a prayer email chain you don’t remember signing up for without making it look like you hate Jesus and prayer and humans. You can see the original post right here.)

After going through hundreds of entries, here are the 10 best. Please vote in the comments section by picking the number of the one you think is the funniest. The headline with the most votes will be printed in the Stuff Christians Like book from Zondervan, the winner will have their name in the acknowledgments section and get a free copy of the book. Vote as many times as you like until the end of the day on Tuesday, July 14th.

Here we go:

Jarrod Haggard
1. “The Eternal Implications of Clicking ‘Remove Me’”

Leo:Unfinished
2. “Breaking the chains: How to make holy use of the spam folder.”

Jonathan Ferguson
3. “Should I Pray or Should I Go Now?”

Casey
4. “Stuff Christians Like: Unsubscribing to prayer chain emails – we’ll have time to catch up in heaven.”

Chandler
5. “Sorry, my email is atheist.” Or Dewde’s collaborative response, “SCL: I May Be a Christian,
But My Inbox Is Atheist”

Chuck Allen
6. “How to Cease Without Praying”

han-nah
7. “Hate the Spam, Love the Sender.”

Elizabeth R
8. “Giving the prayer chain up (without letting Jesus down)”

snowberrylife
9. “SCL: I kissed prayer chains goodbye.”

jesse elisabeth
10. “Breaking chains without breaking hearts”

What number do you think is the funniest?

And I totally have that song rattling around in my brain now.

Should I pray or should I go now?
If I go there will be trouble
An if I pray it will be double
So come on and let me know….

I'm just excited to have one in the running, so #9!

snowberrylife Jul 14, 2009

This may be as close as I get to making a Letterman top 10 list so I'm considering taking up scrapbooking just for this occasion!

Ooh- or maybe you could leave the title blank and create a "Choose your own title adventure" section of the book? That would be way funnier than The Shack! (#9)

i'm not gonna lie, "should i pray or should i go?" is pretty good. 6 is good, too.

hey jon, if someone ever challenges my Godliness, can i dispute them by saying "oh yeah, did YOU ever have a chance to name a chapter in the SCL book?"
obviously there are nine people this would not work against.

I like number 7 the best.

Number 3 is good though too.

Kristina Jul 14, 2009

Even though #6 is super witty and appears to be a winner with most, #9 made me laugh outloud – the more references to other "SCL" stuff, the better! But I'd be excited to see either :)

*~Beck~* Jul 14, 2009

I love number 2!! Very funny!!

Holly Brennan Jul 14, 2009

I am liking #6. Succinct and captures the idea. Of course, the atheist inbox is clever too.

Courtney Jul 14, 2009

I can't believe it – hardly anyone has voted for #5. That is by far my favorite and definitely gets my vote!
