Get Christian Ringtones


Cellphones are something that have certainly grown in popularity over the past several years. Ringtones are the new craze and have become very, very popular with teens and young adults as they allow the user to further personalize thier phone to be distinctive, and very much 'their's' and their's alone.


If someone likes rap music, you wouldn't think twice about them having a hip hop ringtone on their cell phone, would you? Of course not. If you knew someone who loves rock and roll music, why wouldn't you expect them to have a rock and roll ringtone on their cell phone? Of course they would. So, why should being a Christian be any different? As Christians we should be able to have Christian ringtones on our cell phones as well. Now we can. Don't get me wrong, please. I'm not saying that you are not a Christian if you do not have a Christian ringtone, but if you do in fact have a Christian ringtone on your cell phone, the chances of you being a Christian (and not afraid to show it) are pretty good in my honest opinion. Come on, they are free. Go ahead and show your faith! Be distinctive! Be a distinctive Christian!


So, as Christians, we should be overjoyed (and I for one am, as I'm sure others are as well) that many of the biggest players in the ringtone industry have decides to offer a full range of Christian Ringtones, and even let the user have 10 bonus Christian ringtones when you sign up with thier service.


So, what's so special about Christian ringtones? Well, to start with, there are literally hundreds of contemporary Christian songs to choose from as well as standard gospel hymns. The reason this is important is because music, to Christians, is very important. We sing these songs at church! Christian tunes give us inspiration and shelter from the world, and it also let's the world know thet we are in fact 'different' from everyone else. Not better, just forgiven. Besides playing Christian music in my car or home when my non Christian friends are around, I cannot think of a better way to bring up my faith than by someone calling and a passerby hearing a Christian tune, a distinctively Christian ringtone, that they have never heard before. What an ice breaker!


So, if you are looking for something new to introduce the faith to your friends or and new person with, Christain ringtones are the perfect way to do so, while inspiring you and reminding you of God's grace whenever you get an incoming call or text message.


Are they a fad? No. Christian ringtones are here to stay, as long as ringtones themselves remain. Keep the faith!
