DEAD OR ALIVE (ESTHER) - CREWNECK SWEATSHIRT

THIS DESIGN IS A BOLD DECLARATION OF FAITH AND IDENTITY. LIFE AND DEATH ARE NOT OPPOSITES FOR THOSE IN CHRIST—THEY ARE BOTH ARENAS WHERE WE BELONG TO HIM. THE ARTWORK CAPTURES THIS TRUTH WITH A POWERFUL IMAGE: ONE SIDE A LIVING FACE, THE OTHER A SKULL. TOGETHER, THEY REPRESENT THE REALITY THAT WHETHER IN LIFE OR IN DEATH, OUR PURPOSE REMAINS THE SAME—TO LIVE FOR THE LORD.

ON THE SKULL SIDE, YOU’LL FIND THE FRUIT OF THE SPIRIT SUBTLY EMBEDDED WITHIN THE DESIGN. THIS IS A REMINDER THAT EVEN IN THE FACE OF MORTALITY, WHAT TRULY MATTERS IS THE CHARACTER OF CHRIST BEING FORMED IN US—LOVE, JOY, PEACE, PATIENCE, KINDNESS, GOODNESS, FAITHFULNESS, GENTLENESS, AND SELF-CONTROL. THESE FRUITS ENDURE BEYOND LIFE ITSELF, BECAUSE THEY REFLECT HIS SPIRIT ALIVE IN US.

THIS PIECE IS ANCHORED IN THE POWERFUL WORDS OF ROMANS 14:8–9:
“IF WE LIVE, WE LIVE FOR THE LORD, AND IF WE DIE, WE DIE FOR THE LORD. SO THEN, WHETHER WE LIVE OR DIE, WE ARE THE LORD’S. FOR CHRIST DIED AND LIVED AGAIN FOR THIS REASON, THAT HE MIGHT BE LORD OF BOTH THE DEAD AND THE LIVING.”

DEAD OR ALIVE IS MORE THAN JUST APPAREL—IT’S A VISUAL TESTIMONY. IT’S A STATEMENT THAT OUR LIVES ARE SURRENDERED, THAT CHRIST DEFINES WHO WE ARE, AND THAT NOTHING—NOT EVEN DEATH—CAN SEPARATE US FROM HIM.

WEAR IT AS A CONVERSATION STARTER. WEAR IT AS A DECLARATION. WEAR IT TO REMIND YOURSELF AND OTHERS THAT IN LIFE OR DEATH—WE ARE THE LORD’S.
