What Is the Difference Between Kerusso, Cherished Girl, HOLD FAST, and grace & truth?
Updated
Kerusso.com sells Christian apparel and accessories under several brand labels, and the main difference between them is the audience they are designed for. Kerusso® is the flagship brand and also covers kids through Kerusso® Kidz; Cherished Girl® and grace & truth® are women's lines; HOLD FAST® is a men's line. If you are shopping for yourself or a gift, the fastest way to choose is to start with the intended wearer, then compare the specific design and price.
The four brands at a glance

How to choose between them
If you are buying for a woman
Both Cherished Girl® and grace & truth® are women's lines, so the brand name alone will not decide it for you. Compare the actual design: Cherished Girl® listings on the homepage lean toward softer, conversational messages ("Love Jesus Love People," "Don't Worry Birds"), while grace & truth® listings include text-driven designs ("Lord's Prayer," "Y'all," "Sip Pray"). Price points overlap at the same $29.99 starting level, so style and message are the real differentiators.
If you are buying for a man
HOLD FAST® is the men's-focused label in this group. Homepage examples such as "Evil Is Powerless" and "Knight" are men's T-shirts, all starting at $29.99.
If you are buying for a child
Look for Kerusso® Kidz, which sits under the main Kerusso brand. The kids' T-shirt shown on the homepage ("Pizza") is listed at $16.99, noticeably lower than adult shirts.
If you just want the core Christian apparel line
Kerusso® is the main brand and the safest default when the wearer's gender or age is not a factor in your choice. It carries the general Christian T-shirt designs, and the kids' items are grouped under it as well.
What the brands have in common
- All four appear on the same Kerusso.com storefront, so you can browse and compare them in one place rather than across separate sites.
- T-shirts dominate the listings for every brand, and the site also points to accessories and other categories such as hats, journals and books, and gifts.
- Adult T-shirts across the brands generally start at the same $29.99 price point, with sale items dropping lower (for example, the Cherished Girl "Don't Worry Birds" shirt was marked down from $29.99 to $19.99).
A practical way to decide
- Identify who will wear the item: man, woman, or child.
- Narrow to the matching brand: HOLD FAST® for men, Cherished Girl® or grace & truth® for women, Kerusso® Kidz for children, Kerusso® for general.
- Compare the specific design and message within that brand, since the brands overlap heavily on price.
- Check the listed price and any active sale before ordering, because "from" pricing changes with size and variant.
If two brands fit the same person, treat the brand as a style hint rather than a hard rule — the design on the shirt is what you will actually see, and the price is likely to be the same either way.
