Christian Apparel :Being a Christian


Do they seem to have weak messages? Or are they just plain boring? How about some really cool Christian clothing for a change? Being a Christian doesn't have to be boring. There are a number Christian t-shirts available on the market, but I would like to share with you all some of my own thoughts and inspirations on Christian apparel.

If you look around, you will find that the designs on a majority of Christian t-shirts are usually not as attractive as worldly designs. Not always, but usually. And why is this so? Perhaps most people don't really think of a Christian t-shirt as something to make them look good in. People like wearing nice clothes but when it comes to Christian t-shirts, they simply think of it as just another ordinary t-shirt with some Christian text or picture on it. This seems to be the mentality of some Christian clothing manufacturers. And because of this, a lot of t-shirt wearers, even though they may be Christian, prefer worldly t-shirts that they feel would make them look cool in.

Also, you may notice that many Christian t-shirts don't have engaging messages on them. It may be a bible verse or a Christian statement but if it is not effectively integrated into the design to make people take a second look, then what's the point of putting it there in the first place? Many worldly t-shirt designs shout out some seemingly cool statement or display some cool looking graphic. Christian apparel should do the same and do it better! You can wear your faith proudly and look really cool in it. Amen? Wearing Christian clothing is more than just an ordinary fashion statement.

Wearing a Christian t-shirt is really about making a statement in body, soul and spirit!

Therefore a Christian clothing designer that is really passionate about what he or she does would put his or her heart and soul into ensuring that every t-shirt design he or she designs is really cool. He or she would also make sure that it communicates the message it carries with great impact. After all, it is written:

Whatever may be your task, work at it heartily (from the soul), as [something done] for the Lord and not for men, knowing [with all certainty] that it is from the Lord [and not from men] that you will receive the inheritance which is your [real] reward. [The One Whom] you are actually serving [is] the Lord Christ (the Messiah). - Colossians 3:23-24 (Amp)
People are starting to realize that their faith should not only remain within themselves and are looking for new ways of expressing their spirituality. Wearing really cool looking Christian clothing is one great way to do it. These days, fashion is neither just about showing off the latest trend nor merely about designer clothes and brands. Christian apparel is a new fashion revolution which is above the fickleness of the fashion industry and is here to stay.
