Truth Tats: The Christmas Story
Celebrating the Season of Advent with Truth Tats
Designed just for the season, Christmas Truth Tats present a new way of telling the story of Christ’s birth. Truth Tats are temporarily on your skin, permanently on your heart.
This is a five week program leading up to Christmas day, each packet of Truth Tats includes a family devotional booklet that kicks off each memory scripture of the week. The twenty accompanying Scripture tattoos are a visual way to continually applying and memorize God’s word. Each week opens with a set of four identical Scripture tattoo designs so that each family member can have his or her own tattoo! Week two, there is a new Scripture for memorization and four new tattoo designs, again identical designs so each person is memorizing the same Scripture.
For over 1,000 years Christians worldwide have been celebrating Advent, a time of spiritual preparation for the birth of Jesus Christ. The word “advent” comes from the Latin adventus meaning “coming toward”. So it is entirely appropriate that the four weeks prior to Christmas we will be preparing our hearts for His Advent.
Truth Tats are a unique way to celebrate the season as well as to “show and tell” God’s word to others. This is ideal for the classroom, family devotion time, and in personal Scripture memorization

Truth Tats? I was wondering just what these were going to be. When I received them, I had a difficult time restraining myself. My grandchildren are going to love these. They will also be appreciated by parents and grandparents.
I really had to work to restrain myself. I wanted to put one on. Oh, well. They are supposed to be for the kids, but don’t you know, many of us are kids at heart?
This is really a novel idea for the Advent season. Each week there’s a short devotion to read at the beginning of the week and four temporary tattoos (all alike) to wear on your hand for the week to assist in memorizing the verse of the week. There are four sets with one for each week, one for Christmas and a bonus.
I have two grandchildren, so there are enough that they can each become tattooed. And peace of mind for the parents, because 1) the kids will be learning Bible verses and 2) the tattoos are temporary.
