The Christian Pinterest

Christians have done the expected. We've taken a creative idea from the secular world's use of technology and added our cheesy flare to it. After all, imitation is the highest form of flattery.

Or is it?

Are you ready for this?

You know that YouTube inspired GodTube. eHarmony was holified by Christian Mingle. Christian Business Linking is our Linkedin for the Fortune 500 Christian. Christians can tweet on Holy Pal instead of Twitter. Just like MySpace, you've probably never used Xianz. And, yes, Facebook even has a Christian counterpart in Our Christian Place.

But this next one is the most expected yet. And will likely be the inspiration of Gravy posts for years to come. Writer's block was just murdered in my life.

There is a new Christian Pinterest. It's called The Churchyard. Why the Churchyard? I don't know. I would have called it "The Christian Potluck."

You can follow people and create your own boards. You can pin things and if you like something you can "amen" it. (I'm not lying.) "Amens" will keep a preacher preaching and a pinner pinning. 

Here are nine things I learned in ten minutes on thechurchyard.net:

9. Ever wondered if you can make an angel using coffee filters? Guess what? You can.

8. Or did you know you can use popsicle sticks to memorize the books of the Bible? You do now.

7. Have you actually seen a mustard seed? With a little faith, you can log on and you won't have to wonder any more.

6. Who is the Christian version of Chuck Norris? Apparently, he wears number 15 and plays football. It's Tim Tebow.

5. Courageous is the Godfather of Christian movies.

4. There should be a Christian video game called "Call of Duty: Spiritual Warfare."

3. Hell has a national anthem: "I Did It My Way."

2. God answers "Knee-Mail"; but don't send him chain letters or forwards.

1. There are 50 uses of baking soda. Only 48 more than I had previously thought.

Question:
What do you think of thechurchyard.net? Are Christian social networking sites a good idea?
