Him&Hymns handmade jewelry brings you hand-stamped pieces by moi, featuring words from the Bible (i.e., Him-with-a-capital-H) or from hymns (only those old enough to be in the public domain, of course). I've also got a few pieces that don't quite fit these categories, but they still reflect ideas important to me, like honoring our veterans, loving the good old US of A, and celebrating farmers. These pieces, which make you wanna stand up and say "DARN TOOT'N!!", appear, as you might expect, in the Darn Toot'n Department of the Shop. You didn't think I'd leave out Dog Lovers, did you? Visit our Dog Lovers' jewelry collection too!
Pendants are made with a variety of metals, including anodized aluminum, silver plate, copper plate, copper, brass, silver filled, and sterling silver.
All pendants come with a 30-inch ball chain in either stainless steel or brass, unless stated otherwise in the description of the piece. You can easily shorten the ball chain using wire cutters or even scissors. I like to choose a chain for the pendant that I think brings out the colors of the piece, but if you have a strong preference for either the stainless or brass chain, please add a note in the space provided as you check out. Or you can purchase a sterling silver ball chain in the Upgrade My Chain section of the Shop.

HIM
First, Him!
I've heard it said, and I agree: "The Bible isn't just a book you read; it's a Book that reads YOU."
There's no more powerful piece of writing in the history of the world than God's Word. When you hear a verse that speaks just exactly to what you're going through (...or what you've been up to), it's powerful medicine, isn't it! Sometimes it stings. But you know that when you face and embrace that Truth, the sickness, the inflammation, the necrosis of your soul begins to heal. Soundness comes in. Then He picks you up, gives a kiss on the forehead, and sends you back out to "feed the sheep" (John 21). I hope you find the Bible to be an inexhaustible treasure, a truth-telling mirror, a balm for your wounds, an unfaltering compass, an eradicator of your inner bull-loney, the words of eternal life. I do. So I make jewelry that helps keep little bits of God's Word close to you all the time.
I rejoice at Your word as one who finds great treasure. Psalm 119: 162
Please note: I have shortened or paraphrased some of the verses where doing so doesn't alter the
meaning of the text. Also, some pieces contain the reference (book, chapter, and verse
number) for the verse, and others do not. Either way, I always give you the reference on
the paper card included with your purchase.

HYMNS
Singing great hymns with great people is a great joy. The church I grew up in could really belt them out, in 4-part harmony, using actual paper hymnals with words and music (!) printed in them. The hymn is an art form, and the best ones bring meaty theology, heartfelt poetry, and solid choral writing together in a way that all of us, even we not-particularly-virtuosic singers, can share. I hope these pendants help keep a song in your heart! You'll receive a little card with the hymn title and the writer's name with your pendant, so we can continue to remember and honor the men and women who made hymn-writing and hymn-singing the rich tradition that it is.
