Why 3:16?
3:16 didn’t start because I wanted to make another Christian shirt. It started with a burden in my heart: how do we get people talking about Jesus again?
John 3:16 is one of the most recognized verses in the world. People know the number, they’ve seen the signs, but many have never stopped long enough to understand the love behind it. I wanted something simple enough to wear, but strong enough to make somebody ask a question.
Because when they ask, we have an opportunity.
This shirt is not the message. Jesus is. The shirt just helps open the door. A door to tell somebody that they are loved, that there is hope, and that God has not forgotten them.
We’re not just wearing a design. We’re wearing something that can start a conversation. And I still believe one conversation can change eternity.
FOR GOD SO LOVED CHICAGO.
