What I Wore: Love, Peace, Faith, Hope, Jesus

I was on the Fashion Bomb yesterday and saw a post about Forever 21 and their Christian tees and tanks. It caused quite an uproar in the comment section. I went to the blog WTforever21 to see what the commotion was about and it was pretty much just non-believers upset that Forever 21 has Christian tees. People said “God wouldn’t approve of half of the things sold in that store.” Some however defended the tees and the store because as most of you know the owners of Forever 21 are Christian (check the bottom of the bag John 3:16). Many say that F21 is trying to sell religion, well guess what, purchasing the shirt is optional. You do not walk in the stores and they force you to by the Jesus loves Me tee.

At my church we talk about bringing Christ in Culture and this is one way to do it, through fashion. There are too many believers afraid to speak up about their relationship with God because they fear what others may believe. Well I personally am not afraid. If you can glorify MTTM and Dimepiece with their vulgar tees and buy tees with political agendas, homosexuality, or Buddhism, then I can praise Jesus with mine, which is why I wore my “Love, Peace, Faith, Hope, Jesus” Tank yesterday. When I saw it in the store my eyes lit up. I am going to purchase a few others because I am not afraid to show who I praise. In no way am I trying to push my beliefs on anyone and I am not judging anyone for the clothes they buy, but it is rare when you find something fashionable that expresses your beliefs and I wanted to share.
