RISE UP Coffee Mug — Colossians 3:23

"And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men." — Colossians 3:23 (KJV)

Paul wrote this right after addressing every relationship in the Roman household — slaves and masters, husbands and wives, parents and children. Then one universal command for everyone: whatsoever ye do.

Whatsoever. The register. The diaper. The email. The spreadsheet. The truck. The kitchen. All of it. ALL of it unto the Lord.

This mug carries that doctrine where you'll see it every morning — the first thing in your hand before you face the day. Bold "RISE UP" typography filled with scenes of faith and prayer on one side. The full KJV verse on the other. Premium 20 oz lead-free ceramic, made to order. Built to preach over your coffee.

The Design

• One side: Bold "RISE UP" typography with the letters filled with scenes of faith — sunsets, mountains, hands clasped in prayer, crosses — like windows cut in the shape of letters into the working life of the believer. "Colossians 3:23" reference beneath.
• Other side: The full Colossians 3:23 KJV verse — "and whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men" — with "Colossians" in flowing script.
• The detail most people miss: This isn't generic faith merch. "RISE UP" isn't the verse — it's the command that makes the verse practical. Paul says do everything unto the Lord. The mug says rise up to do it. Don't drag through your day. Don't survive your work. Rise UP to it, because the One you're working for is worth more than the task in front of you. Verse-accurate, doctrinally grounded, prayed over before production.

Common Questions

How big is this mug?

20 oz capacity — significantly larger than a standard 11 oz coffee mug. Dimensions are 4.3″ tall by 3.7″ diameter. Built for serious coffee or tea drinkers who don't want to refill three times before lunch. Perfect for the home office or long morning Bible study.

Is this dishwasher and microwave safe?

Yes to both. Lead-free, BPA-free glossy ceramic construction built for daily use. Microwave-safe for reheating, dishwasher-safe for easy cleanup. The kind of mug you can actually use every morning without babying it.

Is this a good gift for a coworker, boss, or employee?

Yes — one of our most-gifted pieces for workplace contexts. Colossians 3:23 is THE Christian work ethic verse, and a mug is the gift that actually shows up on someone's desk every morning.

Is this a good gift for a graduation, new job, or career milestone?

Yes. Colossians 3:23 is one of THE go-to verses for graduations and career launches — the foundational call to do all work unto the Lord. A 20 oz mug makes it a daily reminder rather than a one-time card.

Will the design hold up over time?

Yes. Premium glossy ceramic with durable double-sided printing built for years of daily use. Dishwasher-safe construction means you don't have to hand-wash to preserve the design.
