ABOUT
My name is Ralph Bailey and my clothing and accessory brand Made New has truly been a labor of love for me. I love the word of God & I have a desire to share His truth with people. My hope is that God will be gracious enough to give another sinner the gift of regeneration through the work of the Holy Spirit (aka born again). A few years ago I started a clothing/accessory company prior to Made New. But I felt a sense of disconnect with my brands messaging & my worship to God. I desired to create products that would make an eternal impact on this world. So after careful thought I decided to shut down my brand & take some time off to rediscover my reason for creating products. Roughly about a year later I began to play around with a few designs & discovered that my love for biblical truth could be perfectly blended with my love for fashion.
The name Made New was inspired by 2 Corinthians 5:17 - Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things have become new. To be made new according to the Christian faith means to be born again. The phrase born again literally means born from above. When a person repents of their sins & accepts Jesus as their Lord and Savior, God gives them the gift of the Holy Spirit. When this happens to a person, he or she is given a new nature that now desire to love God and become obedient to His commands. I desire for each design to spark up a conversation about becoming a new person in Jesus Christ. Lastly I want to live out my Christian beliefs. So I have committed to giving back a percentage of our profits monthly to fund Christian mission work that spread the gospel of Jesus Christ. You can read more about that here Joshua Project. I can’t thank you enough for your continued love & support of my brand.
