Wordless Wednesday: A little scripture with your shopping?
2010 February 17
John 3:16 reads: “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.”
Have you ever noticed the scriptural reference on the bottom of your Forever 21 yellow shopping bags? I had to Google it the minute I noticed; Wikipedia had the reason behind the Biblical verse: “The store’s trademark yellow shopping bags have the words John 3:16 printed on the bottom, a reflection of the owners’ Christian faith.”
Kinda cool.

I had never noticed! I only go there about every 4 months to look at jewelry. I went in last night and I didn’t find a single thing! :(

Oh, wow! That’s pretty cool, actually! Impressed that you noticed the bottom of the bag to see that…. trying to think when I’ve noticed the bottom of any bag… hmmm… thank goodness there’s fabulously observant people like you in the world! xoxo

Hmm. That’s cool. Maybe I will have to take a shopping trip to support my fellow Christian. :)

I agree with Michelle. I think that it’s cool when someone is proud enough in what they believe to spread the word.
