On 02/14/2021, Chris Baker shared his inspiring story with the Christ Community Church congregation. His ministry, Ink 180, “transforms the painful reminders of destructive situations into beautiful art by covering the tattoos left from a former life in a gang or enslaved by human trafficking.”(Source: www.ink180.com). While Chris’ testimony included many powerful moments, a few of his comments really stood out (paraphrase): “…hard to live a new life in Christ when a tattoo reminds you of a past sinful life.” Also, he had the opportunity to monetize his story through a reality TV program; but, he declined because the production company wanted to de-emphasize or remove the faith component of Chris’ ministry. He declined saying (paraphrase), “If you take Jesus out of our ministry, there is nothing left to talk about.” You can view Pastor Jim Nicodem’s conversation with Chris Baker here.
