On Wednesday, Westside Christian Church's sign read, "Forgiveness is to swallow when you want to spit." Senior Pastor Rick McMichael told The News-Review that a group of volunteers came up with the message and it wasn't meant to be sexual. "Well, you have saliva, and a lot of times when you get annoyed, you spit at people," McMichael told The News-Review. "You should just swallow it and get over it." He later admitted that he could understand how people may have misinterpreted the message. The sign was changed by the afternoon. "God is love," it now says.
