Christian Pendants: Share His Story
One of the joys of being a Christian is the ability to share His story. “His” story, of course, is the life and ministry of the Messiah, Jesus Christ, called Yeshua in Hebrew. One of the most creative ways to share His story is through the beautiful and inspiring messages of Christian jewelry. It can be part of any Believer’s faith journey.
Christian pendants, earrings and bracelets can also help tell an individual’s story about their relationship with Jesus. Certain pieces can speak to how someone came to God’s saving grace. These are ultimately telling His story through the experiences of His followers. The messages of hope and encouragement conveyed by Christian jewelry connect people’s hearts to God.

The Ichthys is the oldest symbols of Christianity. It is widely recognized and used today as someone who engages in the faith of Jesus. The fish was used as a symbol of Christianity due to the association of the fish to Jesus’ ministry: Jesus fed the multitudes with fishes and loves, Jesus refers to His disciples as "fishers of men", and Jesus uses the comparison of “fishers sorting out their catch: to God's decision on who will go to heaven or to hell. The term Ichthys is an acronym in Greek for Iesous Christos Theou Yios Soter or Jesus Christ, Son of God, Savior. Wearing the Ichthys is possibly a more subtle way to show your faith.
