I have been asked numerous times by “non-Christians” what my tattoos mean to me, which opens the door to share the gospel. That has certainly been the case for me personally.

So, my wife and I told him that whatever he gets ‘it needs to honor God, be in a location that won’t cost him a job and be something he can live with forever because it’s permanent.” Then we went on to try to persuade him to get it professionally done to avoid infection.
