Why? Because I love Jesus, I been a Christian for 20 years now and I love tats. I got my first few tats in my early 20’s, before accepting Jesus Christ and initially regretted getting them and shared with others my findings about tattoos in Leviticus, “the law or old covenant”. And somewhere along the way in my journey I embraced His grace, the new covenant, and His mind-boggling unconditional love

It is the best way to show that Christ brings unity and peace. It makes me kinda misty.

I used to have issues with tattoos. Used to judge. Then, I met some wonderful, God-fearing people who have them. My pastor has them. And I’m okay with that. I thought my judgement was gone. Until… until my husband made it known that he wanted one. When he said it, something ugly welled up inside of me. Something that tells me it’s not okay. I know that something is wrong, and it’s not okay that I feel this, but I do. Fill ME Lord, I pray!

I just don’t have any because I am a big chicken – don’t like needles and they are kinda involved in getting both of those things. As a church planter – I wear jeans to church. When I came back east and went to my old church – I had comments from several friends about this. My response was wear whatever you are comfortable wearing, but if someone comes in wearing jeans – at least one other person will be too – so hopefully they will feel more at ease. I love that we have fellow believers who have tattoos and piercings – so that they have that covered.

Some things are hills upon which to die — like salvation by grace alone through faith alone. Some things are not — like tattoos and schools. Praying the world is drawn to Jesus through the love we have for one another. Bless you, sister.
