Beautiful prayers for any time or place:

No matter where you are or what’s on your mind, it’s always a good time to pray. Prayers New and Old and Prayers for All Occasions are two beautiful books that make prayer on the go easier. These volumes offer a diverse collection of prayers for family, life events, church work, and other unique occasions. Their pages are full of your favorite psalms, intercessions, praises and thanksgivings from The Book of Common Prayer, along with new prayers to enhance your prayer collection. With faux leather cover, gold edges, and ribbon, these are perfect gifts that introduces young and old to experience the richness of prayer.


Jump into learning more about the Bible:

Perhaps there are disciples in your life who want to know more about scripture than just what they hear in church on Sunday – but they don’t want to start. One of our bestselling Bible study books may be the perfect entry point into a deeper journey of learning.

A Journey with Luke Bible Challenge contains bite-sized reflections on the gospel we’ll hear in church throughout 2025. And we have more where that came from, in all 10 books of the Bible Challenge series.

Or you could travel through the entirety of scripture through a new lens, accompanied by the women of the Bible. Bible Women identifies every woman who speaks in the Bible, from the familiar to the surprising. The expanded second edition features new ways to use and study the words and wisdom, updated content for today’s context, and 93 prayers—one for each woman who speaks in the Bible.


For loved ones young and old:

Is someone in your life a young adult, new college graduate, or in the midst of a life transition? This may be the perfect time for a devotional that avoids saccharine-sweet stories or guilt-tripping demands. Devotions for People Who Don’t Do Devotions is a lighthearted yet earnest invitation to look for God’s hand at work in your day-to-day life. Buy two copies and read along with your loved one!

For smaller disciples – even those too young to read – check out these new playing cards, The BIG Way of Love for Kids. The cards guide children to explore Bible stories, listen, pray, learn, and practice. They can play alone and with friends, church teachers, or family. The BIG Way of Love works for all kinds of young children and is designed to grow with them. Because we’re never too old or too young to walk the Way of Love with Jesus.
