Are you really a christian tees fan? Good for you! I’m catholic and I’m touched by this cool tees. The “Hero” one and the Jesus button are a little bit to out of place, but the rest are superb, specially the Lifeguard tee. Amazing job!

Sorry, but I can’t stand “christian” t-shirts. I have been a christian for many years and I even used to wear “christian” t-shirts.
My biggest thing towards them actually carries over to more than just t-shirts, and that thing is Why can’t christians be original? Why can’t they make up their own ideas? Instead of coping what the “world” does and add a clever Christian twist on it, why can’t they design shirts so good that there apart of the world, living among the clothing racks of the “worldly” t-shirts. Isn’t that what Jesus did? Since when did Jesus separate himself from the world?
Also, since when has a t-shirt saved anyone? Are lives should show off the love of christ so much that it doesn’t take a t-shirt to let people know we are christians. I’m not saying that I’m to that point, cause I’m not, but I strive to let the love of Jesus show through me, and thats the reason people would want to talk to me about Jesus not because I have a copy cat christian t-shirt on.

@ Cody
I can see your point, but these T-shirts I have selected are from one particular online retail outlet. I saw them, liked them—and shared them on my blog to inspire people.
Yours views on the subject are a little pessimistic in my opinion. These T-shirts are aimed at promoting Jesus, in the most part, in a quirky way and style. I’m sure there are plenty of other designs out there that are of a different style and purpose to these.
You say “since when has a t-shirt saved anyone”? Well, I suspect many, in an indirect way. For young people in particular, it could be a great conversation-starter about Jesus, for instance.
@ Pat
I’m a massive fan of the Obama HOPE Tee myself, but there’s merit in all of them. Yeah, the Organ Donor one is quite a good design, too. Thanks for commenting.

I am not a fan of “Christian” t-shirts. To me it almost promotes less confrontation and more of an “this is the extent of my religion.” It’s quite obvious that can’t be said of all humanity, don’t get me wrong on that.
I do like some of the designs, though I am opposed to anything Obama. I can’t stand when Christians imitate him, even if the designers did a fabulous job (which they did)

@Skysofly → Funny you should mention Obama. I just heard that he did a speech in the States whereby the Cross was deliberately covered-up? If this is the case, I hope it had nothing to do with him (his staff, etc). If I hear that he does that kind of thing—denying Christ, that mock-image will be removed from my blog.
As-is, I’ll wait to hear more news on the matter before proceeding…
Thanks for your thoughts

Obama has done many wrong / anti-Christian things. I’m surprised many outside the states don’t know. Obama has stated that we aren’t a Christian nation but a nation of Muslims, Jews, Hindus and the like. In other words, we are no longer a nation under one God but many gods and that we shouldn’t favor our Christian roots but embrace progressive activism.
Obama, though a great leader (as I’m sure he is) has done many things that I wholeheartedly disagree with. Funding outside-the-U.S. abortion clinics during this recession is one thing that makes me sick to my stomach. How can a “man of faith” endorse murder?
Studying other countries news sources is always good. Thats what I do every morning before work. I go online and check at least 10 news outlets from around the world to make sure I have a good understanding of what is going on.

@Sky → Hmm, wasn’t aware of these things, although, come to think of it, I heard somethink awhile ago that he doesn’t celebrate Christmas, but celebrates halloween? Red flags are starting to emerge in my thinking about this man.
After taking another look at the Jesus Tshirt, I reckon that it should stay in the lineup, as actually, it sort of says “Obama is not your hope or saviour, but Jesus IS”. I’m looking at it in a different light, despite the Obama issues.
Thanks again for your contribution…

Yeah red flags went up for me a while ago
And I didn’t notice that line on the shirt. Makes sense!

These are great – thanks for sharing with us.
I wonder what Jesus would say about them

Thanks Jeff & Sky for your comments

@Rose → That’s what I think, too. I had a Delirious T-shirt once that was written in Cola-Cola style text. Loved it, although it’s too small for me now

Despite not particularly liking these tshirts, due to I guess the cheese rating, I don’t deny that they do well and that lots of people buy them (I have seen first hand at festivals)
I decided just recently to set up a brand (christian) but with the aim of selling fashionable clothing that doesn’t force a view in the face..
It’s just beginning and we have lots of ideas but check out our facebook page..

Just stumbled across your site. I read the above comments and have to say that I really enjoy your T’s. Sometimes we are too afraid to wear our Christianity (no pun intended), whether it’s on our clothing as a “sign” posted for all to see, or to carry our Bibles with us in public, or to simply share as we walk. We need to walk the talk.
My husband (50 yrs old) used to have a wonderful T-shirt, that I’m sure many remember: His pain, Your gain. He had a lot of looks with it. I’ve since seen a few young guys with it as well. As for the one who thought the Hero T and the Jesus button T being out of place…don’t understand why? Good job. (Hmmm, maybe we’ll all be issued a t-shirt when we get to heaven, haha)

Wow, I mean, I understand that there are just a few people on this site praising this garbage, but really. Not only does this go against any real reasoning that Christianity still has left anyway c’mon on, did Paul run around with “Jesus saves” on his robe written in mud. this is insane people- I see this in malls and other places selling mindless propaganda and I just stumbled on to this site looking up the Obama picture, which is the most racist capitalization I’ve ever seen (no, I’m not African American or an Obama supporter). That picture is exactly what I’m talking about. That is hate meets not any understanding meets fear- meets capital. That is the only reason that you guy’s religion even exists (and no I’m not a Zionist). You capitalize off of the fear and need to have belief to sell this trash.
