we may invest in a couple... Chris would like a hoodie type (I'll have to get him to pick a design) and I'd wear a t-shirt...

Give me a bit of time to look it over--and try to decide on just one or 2.

We are ready to take orders, but they will be iron on designs only. We are looking into screen printing, but it is rather expensive.

To be honest I'm not really sure I understand the point of the clothing line. I understand how you said that you want people to be able to see that everything can be beautiful through God....but then in the same paragraph you said that people should slap bible verses on t's. So how will anyone other than the Christian who wears it know this is about God? Especially if you have a non-believer wearing the shirt when they have no clue what it means. My question is, how will it be made clear this is about God without using a verse?

Another question as well, what's wrong with t's with verses? Is it because you believe Christians should not wear them because they don't always act with as a good example, or is is because you don't feel God should be shared so bluntly? Just curious, from what I read I wasn't real clear on the whole thing .

So... I've had my eye on this thread for quite a while, and I think I am interested in getting a camera one on a T-Shirt (black, if that looks the best).

I am wondering, what brand of T-shirts do you use, and what sizes are going to be offered. Also, do you guys have prices yet?

Vaguely. Sounds like a plan to me.

Hi.

We are making these shirts to glorify God for everything He has given us and show His beauty to the world. We are not making these shirts as propaganda. We will make the message available for those interested enough to look, but not make it so bluntly obvious that it turns people off. Once we get a website up it will have a section on why we make our clothes. It will also have a section on us and what we believe and how we came to believe it. Anyone who wonders what the shirts are about can ask the person wearing them or go to our website. We do not want to slap a verse on every shirt because we arent making these strictly for people who are believers in Christ. Not only christians can see the beauty of life and share in it, and hopefully as others are sharing in it we can share with them. As I mentioned earlier We are making these shirts to give glory to God and show His beauty to the world. Not just to other christians. By putting a verse on every shirt we limit our potential. Im not saying we wont put any verses on shirts. In fact the words in the background of the rose picture are straight out of Psalms. Im just saying that we want to break away for the typical cliche christian clothing. These clothes are not made for ministry, they are made for worship. Im a firm believer that when you worship ministry opportunities will present themselves. Simply put, We want to make something that glorifies God and makes people ask questions that will lead them to God. We dont want to give them some overused verse that theyve heard millions of times and just numb them to the message.

I pretty much dont think that sharing God that bluntly is very effective at reaching the people Im interested in reaching. I want to lead people to Christ, yes. I dont belive that I have to lead Christ to people... He will work in His own time. I definetely want this company, and myself as well, to be a tool in His ministry, but I mostly want to praise God, enjoy life, and let Him do all the leading.

as of right now, I don't believe we have any designs for red shirts, but we do have a few for brown.
I'll try and get the shirt templates done, so you can see them all.

Wow. Can I quote you on that? In my sig? In school essays?

Seriously. For real. That is an incredibly great quotable.
