We’ve all been guilty of using cheesy “Christianese” language from time to time. And perhaps some of the best examples are email signatures. Even with the best of intentions, it can be slippery slope from ending your email with “blessings” to signing off with “resting in the glorious, tender bosom of my Lord and savior, Jesus Christ”
