subject: How To Choose The Best Christian Gifts For The People You Love [print this page] It's important to find just the right gift for the people you love when their big days come around. Whether you're celebrating a birthday, an anniversary, a graduation or a housewarming, you want a present that's going to say exactly what you want to say, exactly when you want to say it. But finding that perfect gift isn't as easy as it sounds, especially when you're looking for the perfect Christian gifts in a very non-Christian society.
Fortunately, your choices for Christian gifts have long since gone beyond the traditional cross necklace or wall plaque! Here's a sneak peek at the hottest Christian gift ideas on the market today.
Jewelry
The classics never die! There's nothing like a trendy piece of contemporary or classical Christian jewelry to help you tell the world where you stand, and thanks to today's designers there are hundreds of options out there! You can choose today's traditional gold or silver cross necklace complete with a crown of thorns or a gilted rose, or you can go for something a little more sassy-for example, a gemstone rosary crafted from trendy hematite or an olive wood cross. Whatever their style there's a piece of trendy gold, silver, gemstone, wooden, leather or beaded faith jewelry waiting just for them.
**A word to the wise: Hematite is incredibly fragile, and while it makes a trendy complement for just about any outfit its fragility makes it a poor gift for children.**
Christian T Shirts
Really, is there anything more fun than walking down the street and having people stop to read your t shirt? Today's Christian t shirts are giving them something to read about! From powerful messages of love and faith to fun little quips ("I Pray," created out of the eBay logo, made a splash on the market not too long ago), Christian t shirts make a great gift for the person who loves to hang out in comfort and style while standing in the silence as a testament to God's power.
Holy Land Gifts
Pastor Sherman Davis once stated that the people of Israel were the only ones to have ever had a country, an entire country, promised to them by God. As god's chosen people they're going to have the opportunity to reclaim their homeland, and what could be cooler than sharing a piece of that homeland with someone you love? People travel from all over the world to see Israel, and now pieces of Israel are traveling all over the world to create fantastic Holy Land gifts.
Share holy water, anointing oils, incense and olive wood carvings with your friends and family in the Christian and Jewish communities. Remember that Dead Sea soap you saw on sale at the mall? There actually is a line of Dead Sea beauty products created straight from the Holy Land, and they make a great gift for any age.
Christian Sneakers
You've heard of shoes making a statement, but what about making a statement with your shoes? Courtesy of some savvy designers who realized that sneakers could do a whole lot more than just keep your feet warm there are trendy Christian shoes cheerfully emblazoned with the word of God just waiting for the chance to be let loose. And they're comfortable too! If you've got a friend who would love the opportunity to literally walk in the word of God this is exactly the gift you've been looking for.
With today's hottest fashions and coolest accessories shopping for trendy Christian gifts isn't so hard after all.
