This post is illegal in 52 countries

I’m not big on “Jesus junk,” but I like this t-shirt and wear it to work out sometimes.  It was a good conversation starter the other day when a guy asked me about it.  We briefly talked about the persecuted church and matters of faith and church in general.  He was looking for a church home so I invited him to visit ours.

From their web site:

Stop people in their tracks when they catch a glimpse of your T-shirt: “THIS SHIRT IS ILLEGAL IN 52 COUNTRIES.”

Wearing this unusual T-shirt will cause others to consider the cost of following Christ for Christians around the world.

The front of this T-shirt also states “Restricted Nations: 38″ and “Hostile Areas: 14.” On the back, Romans 1:16 proclaims, “I am not ashamed of the Gospel…”

Countless Christians risk their jobs, health, property and lives each day for the cause of the Gospel.  Check out Voice of the Martyrs for more information on the persecuted church.

Hebrews 13:3 Remember those in prison as if you were their fellow prisoners, and those who are mistreated as if you yourselves were suffering.

  2. Just ordered my shirt, I am looking forward to wearing it to Sunday School class. The Olympics made my class think I am exaggerating what Christians are exposed to in some parts of the World.

  3. Great idea – I hope that generates some good discussions. Randy Alcorn’s “Safely Home” novel offers a great perspective on persecution in China.

  4. Even I must confess that I like that one!

  5. Neil,
