Spreading The Gospel Through Christian Tees

By Marissa Velazquez


Christians are mandated with the task of spreading the good news about salvation so that everyone has a chance to benefit from it. This is why evangelism is at the core of all their activities. A number of methods are utilized by believers in an attempt to lead others to the path of salvation. These include television and radio messages, one on one conversations and bumper stickers on vehicles. Believers use Christian tees to help spread the good news of Christ's sacrifice for all mankind.

Christians are no strangers to the importance of variety especially when targeting a diverse audience. This is why variety is so important for these fabric-based evangelism tools.Sometimes the shirts are decorated with images related to Christian principles or beliefs. At other times messages pertaining to salvation may be written on them. Bible verses such as the famous and powerful John three verse sixteen may also be etched into the fabric of the shirts.

These tees are great for many evangelists because they allow the message to be spread without verbal communication. This is one of the features that makes them so appealing as tools for the spreading of the gospel of Christ. Additionally evangelists get to target a wider audience than face to face conversations. They also get to send messages continuously as the garments never stop 'speaking'.

Shirts of this kind are often used at events that attract large crowds such as rallies, concerts and conventions. When worn by members of an evangelism team at a concert, for instance, they help visitors to identify persons with whom they can discuss matters pertaining to the faith.

Giving the tees away as complimentary gifts at a concert is another great evangelism method. This has the potential to take the message far and wide as the wearers leave the event. Geographical and political boundaries may also be surpassed if some attendees hail from foreign countries.

Early Christians had to face the challenge of reaching persons who spoke different languages. This is a challenge that modern day Christians face as well and these garments are often designed with this challenge in mind. This is why the shirts often have Bible verses or faith-based messages translated into the languages spoken by the target groups.

Some evangelism teams choose to make the shirts by hand. They use screen printing techniques to accomplish this task. This is a great idea for challenging and inspiring the youth groups in a church. Others prefer to outsource the job to online or physical t-shirt printing companies. Online companies are convenient and many offer customization features which mean that the team gets to choose or create its own design and or message. The shirts are then delivered after the online transaction is completed. This option is ideal when all team members are occupied.

The clothes you wear sends messages to the people who see you each day. You can never tell which or how many of these people can be transformed into a believer when you decide to include Christian tees in your wardrobe. They add another dimension to the task of evangelism in the modern world.
