Most of the Bible speak we use isn't really understood by non-Christians.
"You must be born again", for example, confuses normal people. Think how Nicodemus felt. The Bible gives examples of what it's like trying to have a spiritual conversation with a non-spiritual person. Break it down in plain English (or whatever language you speak) and it'll help people pick it up a lot faster.

B
I really find these phrases are a bit of a peeve for me. Especially, "let go and let God". I call this churchanese.
They are a church version of babel. I dislike the babel of the world, and the world is babylon, the church should not be.
And "via con Dios" is "go with God."
Ok sorry to be a wet blanket. I know this is supposed to be fun.
So I will say that I do have a favorite. When the Pastor pronounces the forgiveness of sin in the name of Jesus. He sometimes will say. "go in the peace of God".

I like how you've drawn a distinction between Christians and "normal people" 
14But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.
