"Twenty-five years ago, an 18-year-old mentor sat by a campfire, its glow dancing on boys’ faces under a starlit sky. One shy kid asked, ‘How do I follow God?’ The mentor opened Proverbs 22:6—‘Train up a child in the way he should go’—and shared Christ’s unmerited grace by firelight. Years later, that boy, now a college man, called. ‘Those nights changed me,’ he said, gratitude cracking his voice. The mentor, now 43, wept—his outdoor soul had sparked a rise to manhood. This shirt—‘Outdoor Soul, Christ’s Call, Rise to Manhood’—holds that fire, its emblem aglow,
stamped with ‘UG’ for Unmerited.
Wear it, rise, reflect His grace."
