Christian fashion jewelry can create a personalized statement about one's faith without ever having to say a word. In a time when evangelism is the norm and certain unbelievers are feeling overwhelmed by the verbal communication those that evangelize use when singling them out, an alternative method to evangelize without using the traditional methods is for believers to wear accessories that have a message all of their own. The idea behind this is that a Christian can wear fashion jewelry to express his/ her faith while at the same time allowing others to be informed of what they believe. Many times by wearing something as simple as a Christian jewelry bracelet, the wearer will be approached by people with questions about what the bracelet means. This creates a perfect opportunity to evangelize another. By the person approaching the wearer; it leaves no room for a "salesman" feeling. They asked a believer a question, and the believer is now in a situation to be able to answer that question by evangelizing.
Those that oppose regular expensive jewelry may find a Christian jewelry bracelet or the wearing of other related items to be an alternative option for accessorizing in the name of Christ. This is also done by the wearing of t-shirts and bumper stickers on automobiles that also have a message to tell. Many find that when expressing faith in a non-verbal way, they are approached more often with questions about why they display such bold statements about God and Christ. The opportunities that come by are endless, and there have been countless testimonials of those that have come to faith in Christ by noticing a bracelet, or other fashion accessories on someone, and approaching them for more information.
There is a plethora of religious and secular organizations that create and sell Christian fashion jewelry. It is recommended that a believer make their purchases from a Christian organization, so they can use the revenue to further the kingdom of God, instead of for the profits of man that secular organizations selling these items will make. There are also many organizations that will sell this type of jewelry for fundraising purposes. This money typically is given to those less fortunate or in some way to further God's kingdom. Participating in the wearing of this type of jewelry may also symbolize participation in a specific non-profit organization such as those that send Christmas presents to foreign countries or those that offer food and clothing to the poor.
When some people think of Christian jewelry, the image of a crucifix comes to mind, but that is not necessarily the case in reality. There are many different shapes, words and symbols that represent Christianity. Finding the one that best suits the individual wearer is the key. Sometimes just a specific colored bracelet can make more of a personal and spiritual statement than that of a particular symbol. This is likened to the pink ribbon that symbolizes the research for a cure for breast cancer. Many will also wear the pink ribbon in addition to their Christian fashion jewelry. These items can be given as a gift for a special occasion or at Christmas time. Believers appreciate the thoughtfulness of remembering Christ and their personal belief in him for special occasions.
There are also specialty stores that sell all sorts of related items, including Christian fashion jewelry. These stores cater to those that want to purchase books, music, clothing, knick knacks and accessories that send a specific message. These types of stores are also popular gift shops for those who want to purchase gifts for their friends. This type of shopping can also be done through the use of websites and the Internet. There are certainly a plethora of organizations selling Christ related items, such as a Christian jewelry bracelet, across the globe. What a consumer cannot find through their local distributor, they may be able to find in an online store environment. At Christmas times, the shipping for these items is typically discounted deeply and sometimes even free. This can make for a much easier time in finding that special piece for that special someone.
Another option is to create it as opposed to purchasing it. There are a variety of secular and non-secular stores that sell beads and the like for stringing together a Christian jewelry bracelet or other Christian based items. With Christianity and the rise of non-denominational churches as well, more chain stores are offering what their customers want, more Christian related items. This includes Christian fashion jewelry, t-shirts, bumper stickers, knick knacks, paintings, and the list goes on and on. It is suggested that those purchasing these items use that purchase for the better good, hopefully as a tool to evangelize to others in a non threatening way. "Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him." (2 Thessalonians 2:1)
