Oh okay. (I think you said a Choctaw Scripture quote recently.)
So are there many tattoo parlors/working tattoo artists in the Lumbee areas?

We’re not in the lumbee area. It’s about a 100 miles from us.
I work with a man my age who was once a tattoo artist(covered in them) he did it to support his crack addiction. He is now a pastor of a local church. Isn’t it amazing how he loves to use the scarred ones? I was speaking with him today and asked him why he no longe practices ink. He explained God says it’s wrong. I showed him what you shared with me in 1 John. Praise God!
Interesting!
Thanks for telling me!
I'm getting forgetful; I don't quite remember what verse you said I mentioned to you.
(I wonder what your coworker's wife - if he's married - thinks of all the ink...?)
PS: Presumably he could in theory change some of his existing tattoos to express Christian themes?
It's what a lot of ppl do to counter tattoo regret, anyway.

So has your coworker met your daughter that is into ink?
She would probably be interested to meet him, in any case.

We establish a better law. I’ve never spoken to her, she seem to have no problem with his tattoos it’s his testimony

No I’ve only been there about a year, I’m sure she would she’s never met a stranger
Oh yes, that was Hebrews 7; I think I mentioned verses 12 and 19.
Sometimes for a wife the husband's many tattoos are all part of the marital 'deal', so to speak.
And these days more and more, sometimes the wife's tattoos may be all part of the marital 'deal', so to speak, for the husband, whether or not he has any. (Maybe if you eventually have a son-in-law, it will be true in his case, right?)

Oh okay! so she's introducing him to tattoos maybe? (or perhaps he's tattooed already but she wants him to get more...)
May they be blessed by God's Word as they eventually marry and set up home.

Sounds like she doesn't quite appreciate ink as much as you do, then...
(Whatever does she think of your daughter's ink interest...?
)It seems that some artists really do specialize in 'tribal' styles. It seems also that -i n North America, at least - it's women who are connected with the expansion of tattoo parlors in recent years; apparently 55%-70% or more of parlor clients in North America are female.
In some ways the fact that a lot more women now are doing it opens more potential for faith based designs, I guess.
Now they do it confidently because they think - maybe you also think - it's cute; often done at 18: it's probably becoming a 'passage to adulthood' for both genders.
Visible faith based tattoos are literally "in your face"...but silent, right?
You can see why young Christians today really like them as a silent, effective witness tool.
