If I had to guess I would surmise that you can expect a watered down Gospel message from their pulpit to match their water joke on the sign. (See what I did there...)
Thanks to Travis Ferguson for this one.

You think it is hot here?
So, I think that this one is an attempt on an old familiar sign phrase... The saying usually goes, "You think it's hot here!? -- God."
But this one seeks to just put God in the question mode as if God sidles up next to you and says 'Psst... psst... Do you think it is hot here?" Hoping for your affirmation so that He can justify turning the thermostat down a little. HA!
In reality, it is supposed to get the reader to think on Hell. Is Hell hot? Well, Scripture seems to indicate that it is in fact hot. But heat should not be used as a deterrent. I don't want anyone to want to avoid Hell because it will be hot... I want people to flee from Hell because they see their sin is what is carrying them there and that Jesus is offering them salvation!

Saving doesn't just happen at Wal-Mart...
Thanks to my good friend Travis for this post. To reduce the saving message of the Gospel to a Wal-Mart comparison is to cheapen the majesty and awesomeness of what Christ did for sinners on the cross!
