Christmas is coming and sometimes it’s hard to figure out what to give parents and/or grown children that they will really like.  Last year I gathered together a bunch of family recipes.  I made sure each of the girls had given me one of their favorites.  For Christmas, I compiled them into little books.  I think that was one of their all time favorite gifts.

This year I am thinking about taking a picture of the house they grew up in and using it as the focal point for a poster.  I might make a collage of family pictures or use the recipe theme or even something like family pets.  Find a scripture that speaks to family and loving each other and I’ll have an inspirational poster that I hope they will keep forever.

We tend to think the family landmarks will be there forever but everything changes.  Before you know it, our children are trying to show their children what it was like where they grew up.  As grandparents, we are honorary “keepers of the memories”. What a precious way to pass them on.

If this sounds hard, it’s easier than you might think. Internet sites like Zazzle.com
have people who would be glad to help you with your project or you can even do it yourself!

Welcome to EZ Christian Posters, I am having fun finding some great poster sites.  You will find them listed in my PAGES section.  Thanks for giving them a look. :0)

Whether on campus or off, pick something for your walls that will encourage you when life presses in.

Posters can remind you of your core values and why you chose to be where you are.  They are great for keeping you focused when distractions would pull you in other directions!

I posted a page on Hubpages today about using Christian Posters to teach scripture passages to young children. Not to leave my friends hanging, I am going to recommend some places they can find customized content for reasonable prices.

The first place you can try is Zazzle. When you go there, it is going to look like there is a lot of content to sort through. RELAX. If you type the words christian posters in the search box, it will pull up a bunch of great looking posters. Most of them can be customized with your information. If you want to choose your own scripture to put on the poster, simply choose something like nature posters to find an appropriate one. One of the best things about Zazzle is their unconditional guarantee. If you don’t like it, they will take it back - even if it was personalized.

One more bonus, if you find something you love, it can usually be printed on almost anything. As Martha Stewart would say, “It’s a good thing.”


If you try them, be sure to let me know what you think.

I recently read an article by Jeffrey Wendland about expressing your faith as a Christian on a secular college campus.  He said that in an environment where you are surrounded by so many conflicting messages, it is great to hang some “cool Christian art posters”.  For him, it not only reflected his faith to those around him, but also was a positive influence on his own life.

Jeff suggested posters as a way to help combat social pressures to conform to secular living and as a possible gift idea for students.  You can read more at Expressing Your Faith As A Christian on Campus
