Perhaps. I enjoyed the story.

@Anne2 Anyway she seemed so quietly modest and confident as a tattooed Christian woman, with all the wording of her favorite verse - John 3.16 - rammed in.

I think your daughter would likely understand at some level and even explain how satisfying the young lady likely found the experience of being inked.

Some of their friends have alot.

@Anne2 I'm sure this is true. More of a coming of age thing now, isn't it?

Even if it's a tiny one.

It kind of follows that a lot of Christian young ppl would say that they therefore wanted theirs to count as a witness, if a faith based one is inked in.

@Anne2 Thanks for your comment.

BTW, did you see Sower's post earlier, above?

So does your daughter seem to have had any second thoughts about hers?

No, I am pretty sure not. She is a grown woman, it is her choice.  I Don't even think about it myself, you cannot really see them. So, it has not been an issue.

@Anne2 Seems like anyway as as an inked up adult your daughter has no regrets.

I saw this quote which probably indicates similar feelings:

I think the pastor's wife has a faith tattoo.... quite a few in my church have faith based tattoos and my friend and I were talking about them....I've seen tattoos that have a lot of meaning like mine. I feel mine is special and thankful I got it. I haven't once felt guilty for getting it.

Sower, above, because of his viewpoint, seems to think that others cannot discuss theirs any more.

Seems like the quote is about ppl like your daughter who are inked up adults with no regrets. (So your daughter's is a faith based tattoo also?)

Just one is faith based. She has been raised up in the way she should go. The way I understand that verse is when they are grown they will not depart from it, are those which keep it who are the children in the Lord. Some depart. Amazing kind of thing with my three kids, surprising actually.

@Anne2 Interesting what you said about your daughter's faith based tattoo....so do you think it's likely a personal reminder for her, or maybe intended as a witness tool?

(Christians' faith based tattoos sometimes seem to fall under different categories, anyway....and maybe sometimes under more than one category at once, perhaps...)

@Anne2 BTW, do you think that it would be good if more Christians trained as tattoo artists?

I don't know whether your daughter has art skills herself maybe, or simply appreciates the artwork.
