14 Faith-Based Gifts For Friends and Family

A Gift for Mom! 🤍

Sparkly lights, Hallmark movies, heartfelt gifts, and too many cookies. ‘Tis the season for all these things.

Unfortunately, ’tis also the season of chaos that can make it all too easy to lose sight of what Christmas is really about. So, in the spirit of keeping “the reason for the season” at the forefront of our hearts and minds this year, we’ve put together a list of the 14 best faith-based gifts to keep your focus on the true blessing of the season.

1. She Reads Truth Bible This Bible is as gorgeous inside as it is out. It’s perfect for those precious quiet moments spent recharging in God’s truth. Added bonus? Mini-devotionals are built in throughout to help the reader make real-life connections to the word.

&amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;lt;br /&amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;gt;&amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;lt;br /&amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;gt;&amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;lt;br /&amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;gt;&amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;lt;br /&amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;gt;&amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;lt;br /&amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;gt;&amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;lt;br /&amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;gt;&amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;lt;br /&amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;gt;&amp;amp;amp;amp;lt;br /&amp;amp;amp;amp;gt;&amp;amp;amp;lt;br /&amp;amp;amp;gt;&amp;amp;lt;br /&amp;amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;<br /><br />

2. Bible Study Kit We love, love these Bible study kits! The pens are designed specifically for writing in your Bible and won’t bleed through the thin pages as you take notes and reflect on scripture.

3. Beginner’s Bible: Timeless Children’s Stories While you’re enjoying your own Bible study, you can encourage your little ones to develop their own love for God’s word. We have this Bible at home, and our 3-year-old refuses to go to bed at night without reading at least one of the colorfully illustrated “stowys” inside.

4. Lauren Daigle CD If you haven’t heard Lauren Daigle’s hauntingly beautiful voice, you’re missing out—seriously, the girl can sing! This praise CD is perfect background music during a bible study or just as worthy of being blasted in the car or during a house-cleaning sesh.

5. Thankful, Grateful, Blessed Scripture Cards

These short and sweet scripture cards can be left anywhere as reminders of God’s truth all day long. The set comes in a series of three themes: Thankful, Grateful, and Blessed, and each one is about the size of a deck of playing cards. Can you say stocking stuffers?!

6. Faith Blanket We’re just going to leave this right here, because who doesn’t love to cozy up under a soft blanket—especially one covered with inspiring faith-filled affirmations?

7. Canvas Bible Cover With several Scripture designs to choose from, you can find the perfect cover for his or her Bible to protect it from messy spills and little hands.

8. Funny YOLO Mug “You only live once” . . . or not. This mug is a great reminder of the promise of eternal life and the perfect companion to those early mornings when you need a little caffeine to kick-start your time with God.

9. Gorgeous Farmhouse Sign Everyone can use a reminder of God’s love hanging front and center in their home. This sign is as uplifting as it is gorgeous, and, hello—we’re crazy obsessed with all things farmhouse style . . . aren’t you?

10. Faith Graphic Tee Everyone loves a good graphic tee, especially one that shows off the most important part of their life. This faith tee does just that, and it’s so stinkin’ cute. We’ll take one in every color, please.

11. Veggie Tales DVD Collection These classic cartoons are a great way to introduce even the littlest children to some of the biggest lessons in the Bible. There’s a reason Veggie Tales have been around forever—they’re just that good.

12. GraceLaced Devotional Book This top-rated devotional is broken down by the four seasons. Each day’s study includes suggested Scriptures to dive a little deeper and a prompt for reflection. Plus, the watercolor design is absolutely swoon-worthy.

13. Scripture Bar Necklace The only thing missing from any outfit is a good accessory. With this sweet bar necklace, she can take her favorite scripture wherever she goes (and we bet she’ll get a lot of compliments on the trendy design, too).

14. Bites of Truth This is one of our favorites because it allows you to connect with your kids in a simple and loving way. It provides 99 Bible verses on sticky notes with unique designs and graphics. They are great to put in lunch boxes, in bedrooms, on bathroom mirrors, or wherever you want to inspire your family and remind them of your–and His–love.

Life Lessons from My Grown Children

In: Faith, Motherhood

“Don’t limit a child to your own learning, for he was born in another time.” – Rabindranath Tagore Quietly communing with a loved one in the early morning hours is such an intimate and precious time. Visiting with one’s grown child when all is dark and still is one of life’s purest pleasures. I remember the conversation clearly. My daughter’s husband, small children, and father were all asleep as we whispered and chatted. She and I are both fidgeters by nature, unable to be still for long. This inner restlessness must be remedied, and we are compelled by biology to...

My Prayer Is Simple Now: “I Believe; Help My Unbelief.”

In: Faith

I have spent most of my life in faith. Not circling it or analyzing it from a distance, but inside it—learning its language before I even realized I was learning it, shaping myself around it in ways that felt as natural as breathing. I was raised in Christian Science, which is a very particular kind of faith. It’s not really about “believing” in the way most people think. It’s about understanding. Aligning your thoughts with what is ultimately true about God and reality. If you can understand rightly, you can be well. If you can see clearly, healing follows. So...

Your Worth Is Not Someone Else’s To Measure

In: Faith, Living

Insecurity is something we all carry in one form or another. For me, it has probably always looked confident and outgoing from the outside. But internally, it can feel heavy, complicated, and exhausting at times. And when someone comes along whose behavior reinforces those insecurities, it amplifies what was already there. There was someone I had hoped to genuinely connect with, but it was clear from the start that the feeling wasn’t mutual. From the beginning, their wall was up. No matter how kind I tried to be or how carefully I showed up, it never came down. Their distance...

Lord, Give Me Faith Like Hannah

In: Faith

Woman walking in field with hand in wheat

Hannah knew what it was like to feel forgotten. She often clutched her empty womb and thought Surely the Lord has forgotten me. She knew the bitter sting of feeling isolated and alone. She knew the anguish of praying day after day after day and seeing no fruit, not even a bud, from her faithfulness. Hannah knew what it was like to feel like the weight of the world was on her, and her hope may have dwindled. Even those around her did not offer encouragement. Quite the opposite—they did their best to sow seeds of discouragement. Yet Hannah pressed...

God Carries Me Through the Deep Waters of Change

In: Faith, Living, Motherhood

“Ahhh!” My underwater scream garbled in my snorkel tube as the manta ray’s cavernous mouth swept a hand’s distance from my face. My fingers tightened around the surfboard until my knuckles ached. My arms trembled. I jerked my head side to side, searching for my daughters, Mia and Megan. Recent college graduates, they had joined me on one last mother-daughter vacation before launching their adult lives. They floated easily on the vibrant Hawaiian water, relaxed, trusting. I wanted to borrow their calm. Earlier, our guide had explained that the LED lights built into the surfboard attracted plankton the way college...

Faith After a Rare Disease Diagnosis

In: Faith, Motherhood

My pastor frequently speaks of “kid pain” and acknowledges there’s nothing like it. I can testify to that. After nine months of uncertainty and unexplained issues following the birth of our now 4-year-old daughter, Harlow, we finally received her diagnosis of Pyruvate Dehydrogenase Complex Deficiency (PDCD), a life-limiting mitochondrial disease with no cure and no FDA-approved treatments. It was heartbreaking. In moments like these, a parent can fall into complete desperation. You go through a range of emotions almost too fast to name: fear for your child’s life; anxiousness about how much time you’ll get with them; overwhelming grief. And...

What If I Don’t Hear God’s Voice?

In: Faith

There have been many times over the years when I’ve heard others share stories of how the Lord spoke to them or gave them a sign. Seashells scattered along a sandy beach, numbered to represent how many children they would have. A quiet walk in the park, followed by a clear sense that another little one was coming. What a blessing, I think, when I hear and read their stories. I often wonder how much more faith they must have than I do—to know with such certainty that what they heard was truly God speaking. I listen, I smile, and...

God Holds You As You Hold Everyone Else

In: Faith, Motherhood

Mother holding toddler daughter on her hip, standing outside

She stands in the kitchen, hands trembling over the sink, tears she cannot let fall pressing behind her eyes. The world outside her window is quiet, but inside her heart there is a storm she cannot name. She is hurting, not because she does not love her life, but because somewhere along the way she forgot how to breathe inside it. Yet even in her pain, little voices call her name. Tiny hands tug at her shirt. Lunchboxes need packing, homework needs checking, hearts need holding. And so she wipes her face, forces a smile, and whispers a quiet prayer:...

Yes, I Know Fear—but I Also Know Faith

In: Faith, Motherhood

Mother holding child's hands in hospital bed

The night my daughter woke up screaming at 3 a.m., I knew something was wrong. Her cry wasn’t the half-asleep whimper of a bad dream. Instead, it was pain—raw and sharp. Within an hour, we were rushing to the emergency room, the world outside our headlights still wrapped in darkness. Tests, scans, questions, and then the words no parent ever wants to hear: “We’re transferring her to another hospital by ambulance. She needs surgery right away.” They said “torsion.” They said “tumor.” They said “appendix.” I nodded, because that’s what mothers do. We stay steady, even when our hearts are...

10 Years after My Mother’s Death, Her Faith Still Guides Me

In: Faith, Grief

Growing up, I was a reluctant Catholic. My mother would drag us to church, and I’d go through the motions—fingers moving across rosary beads without really feeling the prayers. But she never stopped. Sunday Mass, daily prayers, devotions to the Blessed Mother. She was relentless in her faith, not because she was trying to force it on us, but because she genuinely believed we would need it someday. She was right. My mother died of stage 4 colon cancer in 2012. My brother and I watched her suffer, saw how her body betrayed her, watched as treatments failed. And here’s...
