I'm a Christian, I carry a copy of the Bible ( KJV)
and some Gospel of John booklets. I enjoy studying God's word wherever I go. It brings me wonderful comfort! I also try to bring a small notebook so I can write down things I would like to to further research and verses I would like to memorise, or use in letters to friends.
When I was a Pagan, I carried my medicine pouch filled with some sweetgrass, sage, cedar and other traditional Native American medicines, and some clear quartz most of the time.

I wear a simple, sterling silver ring. At first glance it may look like a wedding band but it is not. I wear it on my right hand and only take it off once a year. On a particular date every year I take off the ring and and re-dedicate my life to pleasing my deities. The ring is a symbol of my continued dedication. Although I have dedicated my life to pleasing them, it is nice every year to re-affirm that. I am always conscious that I am wearing the ring and it doesn't matter if it is inconvenient or whether or not it looks good with what I am wearing---just as my faith is not dependent upon whether or not it is convenient or "looks good". I have done this for about six years now and it works well as a constant reminder of my dedication. During tough times I can feel the ring pressing on my finger reminding me that they are near. When I am not sure what to do, the light will reflect on it and catch my attention and remind me to pray. I know most are following a different path than I am, but I thought others might be interested in adapting my idea to fit their own beliefs.

Hey, that's a really cool testimony! My boyfriend used to be a pagan, too, but then he became a Christian. I've been a Christian since I can remember and never carried a Bible with me until my boyfriend went to school after he became a Christian and he was carrying his Bible with him everywhere. I took notice of this and he said, "I don't want to be caught without my sword." So I started carrying a little New Testament in my purse. If I had a small Bible in it's entirety, I'd carry that with me, but all of mine are huge. I should really get a small one. Thanks for bringing this up! Keep up the faith, sister!

I always carry a card in my wallet that states that I am A Catholic and that a Priest should be called if I am ever in a fatal accident.
I have started carrying a Rosary with me, even though I always have one in my car or truck and I carry a C.D. that helps me say a Rosary while I travel.
I also carry my drivers license that states that I am an Organ Donor. I think that is a great symbol to state that I am a Christian.

I have a few gospel CD's mixed in with my secular CD's. Kirk Franklin, Donald Lawerence, Keirra Sheard.
There's some good pastors to watch...Bishop T.D. Jakes, Bishop Eddie Long, Prophetess Juanita Bynum, Paula White...hope this helps.

Well, I use to carry a bible to school, did that for an entire year but it got to be too heavy and I found myself reading it less and less as school work doubled. Now i just carry Jesus in my heart in hopes that he'll always be there to remind me to do the right thing and that he's always there for me when I need him and even when I may feel like I dont.

I got tired of the bible thumpers seeing me in hijab and.....well......thumping lol So now I carry a purse sized Quran with me, it also made me realize that I have wasted a lot of time doing nothing ie waiting at the doctors office And I could have put that time to better use by reading it!

In my bag I have a mini sized cauldron, a few white sage leaves, a few magnets and a clear quartz crystal point. I usually have my pentacle necklace on.

I carry a thankful heart towards God and others around me.
I do not take things for granted and people really notice. That attitude gives testimony that I am a true child of God.
