Life in Christ’s Grip: It’s a new way of thinking for me. Heard this particular from from my pastor about a year ago and it changed my perspective.
Life feels different when you realize you’re held in Christ’s grip. It’s not about religion as much as it is about walking with the One who is smart, courageous, and steady. The kind of hero we all wish we had in our corner. I’m learning to see Jesus not just as the figure in stained-glass windows, but as a living, modern-day hero who steps into the mess of life with strength and love. That vision changes how I show up as a husband, a father, and a man trying to lead my family well.
Fatherhood, Marriage, and Creativity
Life as a husband and father is beautifully messy. My wife and I are doing our best to raise our kids in faith, teaching them kindness, strength, and resilience. Our children bring so much color into our lives…literally. They love to draw, create, and dream. Watching them fill sketchbooks with wild ideas and seeing their creativity pour out reminds me of how God has wired us to reflect His image through creation.
That spark in them led us to start something special: 3FoldLoveCo.shop.
Why We Started 3Fold Love Co
The shop is a way to encourage and fund our kids’ creativity while building something as a family. Some design starts in the hands of our children and all of them come from our wild ideas. They draw, imagine, and sketch, and then we as parents help refine their work into unique clothing and products. Some are faith-inspired, some are just playful, and some are even funny but all come from our hearts and our home. While many of our products did not come from our kids drawings, they came from life as a Christian Family My wife loves comfy T-Shirts with inspiring Bible verses. I like band t-shirts and hoodies and have modified them to punky takes on scenes from the Bible. Sometimes we include a prayer or hymn and other times we just want something that we would wear, so we create it and share it with you as an item available to purchase.
About the Shop
Yes, our prices are a little higher than what you’d see at the big stores. We’re not Temu, Alibaba, Amazon, or Walmart; we’re a small family shop. But here’s the difference:
Shipping and tax are usually included – most of our listed prices already cover the extra costs you’d normally be surprised by at checkout.
Made to order – everything is created after you order it. That means it takes a little longer to produce and ship, but the result is personal.
Environmentally friendly – because we don’t mass-produce and warehouse products, there aren’t piles of unsold items getting dumped when they go “out of trend.” Instead, every product exists because someone cared enough to order it.
Direct family support – every purchase directly helps a family continue creating, teaching, and building something together. It’s not funding a corporation—it’s helping us grow, dream, and provide.
A Final Word
This journey is about more than clothes or products. It’s about faith, family, and using creativity to point back to the Creator. We praise God for the chance to live this life, to raise our kids in Christ’s grip, and to share their creativity with the world.
If you’d like to be part of that story, check out the shop, pick something you love, and know that you’re supporting more than a brand. You are supporting a family.
Praise God. Thank you for His blessings flowing between our family and yours.
